Hello everyone,
Technically I joined this merry throng last summer while nervously considering my first Mercedes-Benz - in fact my first car for two decades - and benefited from some much needed reassurance that I wasn't simply going through some kind of mid-life crisis. For which, much thanks.
Living in Central London and working largely from home meant car-hire was the only sane response whenever the need for four wheels loomed and the idea of actually owning a car held out little more than the prospect of a slow hemorrhage financially. Health- and money-wise, I really ought to stay with the push-bike and London Transport, surely? Until one day the clouds parted and I saw the light... gleaming off that three-pointed star... and a heavenly chorus seemed to strike up... and I was in love.
While my wonderful low-mileage 2006 CLK 280 will continue to accrue mileage only slowly, i.e. 2500 miles in 6 months, I know that you will all understand when I say that I would not be parted from it now. I don't suppose I'm too typical of MBClub.co.uk denizens but I know that we share a passion.
