Age of MB Drivers.....

18 a few years ago:D first Merc 190d
 
75
first merc was a 280 SL in 1973 second is the cls i have now with just about every make in between
 
I'm 25 but I had my first merc when I was 17, an e200 an S reg not sure what model that is then I had two more e class one was a 1986 I think on a C reg and the other was a J reg they both looked pretty similar though. But now I'm getting another merc, I'm picking it up this week/next W126 420 SEL.

17... I had a Morris Marina... I'll just go and get my pipe and slippers.
 
Hi there,

I'm 18 and drive an A160, the "typical" MB drivers are late 40's early 50's, im just wondering how true that stereotype actually is?!

So, how old are you lot ?! :)

So you'll need to start dressing like your dad then....:fail
 
I know this is an old thread but having read it again from the start - just wanted to say again - Rest in Peace Bingo999. No age.

:(

69 and on to third Merc. Bought the first one in my late fifties and am now a committed Merc fan after after owning an eclectic mix of cars from a Nissan Almera to an Armstrong Siddeley Hurricane: plus a bike or two, including a Vincent Black Shadow. When I bought my latest car (a B 200 CDI) a few weeks ago it was a bit disconcerting to note that I was about the youngest customer in the showroom!
 
25 when I got my license brought w202 2.5, crashed it brought a ford (hated it) rebuilt the w202, then brought w203 injector problems (new ones come tomorrow) but just brought a w211 Estate as have three kids now lol ! my dad loved the w202 and still has it, she's a keeper never gave me any problems. Am now 30
 
Hello all.

I realized I was getting old all of a sudden and didnt want anyone saying I was having a mid-life crisis, so a few months ago, just before I turned 39 I bought my first Mercedes.

After lots of research and looking around I purchased a CL 500 W215 2001.
Its a silver automatic 5ltr V8 with all mod-cons that goes like a rocket!

I love driving it, it always makes me smile!

That is until I have to get any work done on it or put some petrol in !!!!!

I'm 29 and just bought my first 190e 3 months ago. And today purchased a very very cheap c280
 
48 and three quarters - bought my first Benz when I was 29 :) I've now got the one I always wanted in the 90's too.
 
Seems to be a mix here... 23 - First w209. Never really thought that I'd end up with one, but after seeing it & taking it out for a drive, it swayed me.
