Age of MB Drivers.....

37 and got my first Merc back end of last year, a C250 CDI Estate Sport Plus. Only extras are metallic, auto 'box and Becker unit - love it and I don't think Audi's and BMW's are a patch on it, especially not this particular engine - loving the torque.
 
39 here, got my first one last week, a fantastic machine!! c180k estate with sports package. I have never missed so many turnings just so I could drive for just a bit longer....
Having come from an Mitsubishi Warrior, the Mercedes seems cheap to fuel and cheap to tax.... to drive the Mercedes is worlds away from anything I have driven before!!
 
Aged 27 bought my new c class coupe AMG sport! First brand new car I have owned and I love it!
 
1st Merc (2003 C180) at 52 (had a lot of c*ap cars before then), now aged 57 (2010 C200).

The benefit of being a "mature" driver is insurance at £440 per annum fully comp with protected NCD. Goal is Aston Martin Vantage before I get to 65 (so you see, I'm not that "mature" except for insurance purposes).

Even more mature means even better insurance value: £231 including Mrs KE.

I also had the target of an AM Vantage by 65, then this stupid sensible head went and spent the money on a new C350 Sport. Fantastic car but still not an Aston. :doh:

Get tempted sometimes to sell the motorhome to raise funds for the Aston, but Mrs Technophobe would not be impressed (well, actually she would string me up - I was being diplomatic!!!).
 
I was 31 when I got my 1st one a new Vito 112

Now 44 just got a C220 CDI last week.
 
Hi ...I have had a 2005 CLK 270 since new.
Best car I've ever had...I'm 80 next birthday....
Age doesn't matter
 
Had my W203 C320 when i was 21, now 22 have my W211 E270.

Probably had over 10 cars since i started driving, and i can safely say nothing else feels like a Merc :)
 
A lady would never tell....

.... but I ain't a lady, I'm the Dame and drive a Sprinter - one of the early ones from 1995 that go forever... even towed a 1.5 ton digger across the alps with her about 2 years back when she already had over 200,000 on the clock. (second gear, 20mph at 5am that last bit over the gotthard admittedly!)I'm now 55... bought her in 2001 when I was a mere 44.
The Dame:D
 
Just turned 40 and had mercedes 320 clk for 6 months
 
40 and a half and owned 1st Merc S211 for 4 years now
 
48, had my first W124 300E when I was around 26(I think?)

Had a few more since, current driver C250CDI sport estate, new E220CDI AMG estate coming Sept.

Keep holding back on the real McCoy, but rest assure that the next one will be a E63AMG estate!! Unless something else caught my eyes??!!
 
31 and drive a CL65

First MB was an E220 when I was 22
 
Clk430 at 21, clk55 now at 24.

They're little muscle cars!
