After three years on the dark side, I'm back in a Mercedes. E Class estate, 350 Bluetec AMG Night Edition with Premium Plus pack - quite possibly the longest model name I have ever come across...
Went for Tenorite grey, with the porcelain/black interior.
Early days, but so far very, very pleased - it's light years ahead of my old S211 280CDi, and feels very special compared to my now departed BMW 5 series. Don't know if I'll ever get to grips with all the tech though!
Decided to take the plunge now rather than wait a year for the new model - partly because I like this one, partly because the S212 is all properly shaken down now, partly because I think the spec on these last ones is great (and there are some really good deals around), and partly because I'm planning to keep this one for quite a few years, so I'm not worried about damage to residual values when the new one emerges next year.
