...It's just a story about some Mercs.

On the back of Monday's post, I received a link to some more classic (and classy) surf busses from the not-so-surf-renowned surf brand Mercedes-Benz.

Monday's post

Despite the car manufacturer not being synonymous with the kinds of wheels many surfers like to put themselves behind, they have made some classic wheels that would be a nifty for getting to the beach.

Call me tight, or thrifty, but as fun as these wheels look, I can't help but cringe at the difficulty in finding spares and stumping up for a simple service when the time comes.

This one's maybe a little too precious for a salty coastline?
