DT Private Reserve: Duck Dynasty: 1955 Mercedes R121 190 SL


Welcome to the new and improved Daily Turismo Private Reserve, where our motto is: "Buy high, sell low, and keep your privates reserved." First up in our new seller submitted format is this 1955 Mercedes R121 190 SL, where the seller answers questions to our highly technical and detailed questionnaire below.

Update 8:30AM: We have gotten an overwhelming response for this car and it looks like it is going to a previous owner.  More updates later.

Update 9:15AM: This car has been sold to a nice lady located in Albuquerque, NM who is a previous owner.  She is pretty sure she left something in it that many years ago and wants to get it back.

Update 9:16AM: The car is back on the market as  DT Private Reserve Exclusive Cellar Submission Top Shelf (TM, PDQ).  The lady in Albuquerque was searching for her virginity that she is pretty sure she lost in the back seat of this SL, but she couldn't find it.  The wheels have been rotated (by loading and unloading it from the trailer) and the car is said to turnover when sufficient torque is supplied to the frame.  With this new attention, the price is now...$10,000,000.


DT Private Reserve: Swedish Jackpot: 1966 Volvo Pee1800


Welcome to the new and improved Daily Turismo Private Reserve, where our motto is: "Buy nigh, sell slow, and keep your reserves private."  Up next is a favorite of the staffers at the Daily Turismo, a Volvo Pee1800 -- lets see how the seller answers our questionnaire.


Introducing Daily Turismo Private Reserve



If we at DT learned anything from our years of reading The Onion & xkcd, it is that cutting edge blogs constantly reinvent themselves.  Normally a car listing site will charge the seller for the privilege of featuring the car and reaching his intended audience...but...what if the reader was charged for that service and the seller could reap the benefit for free?  See where I'm going?  What if we blatantly shook our pom-poms at every rusty piece of crap that crosses our inbox and then our readers nod their heads in unison, some sucker comes in and buys the car...suddenly gold rains from the skies.  Step 4, PROFIT!!!!
