So this is my first Mercedes, and it's a bit like my first Mac.
Before I had a Mac, I was a bit 'anti', feeling they were overpriced and overhyped.
I guess I thought Mercedes were overpriced, and you were paying for a perception of quality, which was no longer a reality.
But I'm converted. I find in the W211 a great balance between performance, luxury and comfort. It 'wafts' sublimely, but has the ability to throw itself forewards, and round corners, plus the ability to stop, especially on the new winter tyres, is incredible!
I love the m272 engine! Most of the time you are almost unaware it's there, press the loud pedal, and you hear and feel it, but not in an intrusive way!
Loving it! :bannana:
