Well I managed to keep my car blemish free for 5 months but it got rear-ended Saturday. I was stopped in traffic when a 4-wheel drive ‘tank’ drove into the car behind me and shunted it forward into mine. With the force of the impact and seeing the state of the car behind in my mirror (lights gone, bumper off, grill smashed, etc) I thought mine must be a right mess but all it got was a few scratches on the bumper and a couple of dents in the tailgate. The tailgate still opens and closes without any problems as well. I have been quoted £700 for the repairs, which I though was light considering the meat in the sandwich was a write off. Thankfully no one was hurt. It just goes to show how well the E-class is made.
