I very nearly signed a lease on a Mercedes...

I know there is space behind the front seats as remember Dan sitting in the back but no seat belts so must be jiyst for a bit of storage...

That's the fella. A fast and comfortable trans-continental cruiser.

That looks like a lot of car for the money.

 

[Klive]

Crikey, a nice car for that money.

Like the wheels but i prefer the AMG ones....

Black on black on a german car just goes....prefer red leather still i think

It's easy to get tempted by the three pointed star isn't it? But I just fancied something less conventional (?)

 

[Andyk]

Looks great on black rather than the many for sale in silver..

Big balls on that one, but too many problems with suspension, leaks, ECUs and a few other bits and bobs, makes Maserati 3200s look cheap and reliable to run!!!!!

I owned an SL500 of that shape when they came out a decade ago, the handling was pretty good, used to set off the anti roll bar with a spirited drive! Trouble is I owned the 3200 at the same time so the SL did not stay long. I've read that they cost a lot to fix and have lots of electrical faults but no first hand knowledge other than when they were new. Owned mine from new for six months and only lost £3000 - those were the days!

Great bargains out there........but only in 350 model as without dubious suspension...loose a bit of speed though

I had a Merc for a while some years back and was not that excited about it overall, Jags are better..!!
