ad states that it has "every concevable extra"...... thats wrong! no keyless go, no rear privacy glass, no rear electric reclining/heated seats, no parktronic, no soft close doors, no wooden steering wheel, no rear climate control settings........ and thats just from what i can see

my uncle has a 2002 S320 CDI facelift and that doesnt have soft close doors. it has a soft close bootlid tho.... my cousin as an 2002 pre facelift S280 and as far as i can remember that doesnt have softclose doors. maybe they came as standard on the 500's but this one is pretty low specced

someone asked me why cant you tow with the s600.
You can, but on a muddy field with 500bhp through the back wheels and horse and box you wont move anywhere. Might plough the field though.
Didnt know about side blinds, mine has them. To be honest it one of those options that once you have them, they are brilliant. Its like having tinted glass when you want it and take it off when you dont, its also brilliant for anyone watching dvds on the headrest on a sunny day. The picnic tables are pretty pants tbh but i suppose other people would use them.

Soft close doors were an option on these...
The same seller states his CLS has every conceivable extra as well....

ive noticed most sellers state it has every optional extra because;
1. they cant be bothered to list it properly,
2. they are lyng to get people to buy it,
3. compared to the rubbish they drive mercs have lots of switches so it must have every optional extra?
it annoys me and sometimes I think about pulling them up on it but then I think it would be a full time job and I already have one of those!
