yh, i have heard EV are going to plummet in price very soon so hold out on buying one. my original thinking was a 2015 e250 petrol but cant seem to find any never mind one in good condition

yh i was originally looking at a 2015 e250 shape but the mpg isnt great compared to a diesel and seems to be very rare car to come about as you have said i do need reliability and fuel efficiency, if maintenance is on par with my e55 thats not a problem

You wouldn’t happen to know how they went about getting a goodwill gesture etc, did they enquire through head office, did they go through a random dealership or the dealership that the car was purchased from originally? Also spoke to a few people who work in body shops and have been told it is...
