In 2001, my friend Hans and I travelled to Augsburg because of an ad. It stood in front of us in an underground car park. Dusty and unkempt, but I immediately fell in love with the car.
But now came the hardest part: I had to convince my wife to buy the car.
With the tongue of an angel, pleading, begging and my own stubbornness, I acquired the car for a price that was favourable to me.
The salesman must have taken pity on my wife's resistance.
We now own the Merlin. My wife Ingrid has also learnt to love the car. Selling it is probably out of the question, as our daughter Susan has already filed a claim,
The car is a favourite with all passers-by and drivers.
He has also helped us to find many new friends in recent years, who we look forward to seeing again at our annual Merlin meetings.
Apart from a few wearing parts, the Merlin has never let us down. We hope for many more kilometres.
