    New car ordered!

    Well done, sounds lovely. I have the E250 coupe auto 125 Edition and I like it but would have liked the E350 version better if the company's budget had stretched.

    Any celebs on the forum?

    This thread may have been better asking anyone knew of celebs who had MB or who has been seen in one. There is never going to be one own up to being a member here. They will suffer from the Groucho Marx theory on never being a member of a club that let them in. Well I think it was Groucho!
