Well folks, I've just got to tell you that I've got THE most glorious car on the planet bar none. My '14 plate CL500 has taken me in sybaritic comfort down through France to the Gers and back again. Both trips completed on just over half a tank of fuel (each way) and I wasn't hanging about where I could go quick. And boy does she do quick. Insane is the only way I can describe the way she just pulls....and pulls ..... and pulls - and all in total silence, without fuss or fancy frills and furbelows. The ability to accelerate from 60 to north of 120 in less time than it takes to take a breath takes your breath away. Comfort? I got out at the other end feeling as if I'd driven to the shops. It's her ability to just cruise endlessly that impresses me. Mile after mile seamlessly stitched together without so much as blink of an eye.
I am soooo lucky and pleased and proud and yes...smug....way too smug for my own good perhaps... but I do NOT care. She sits on my driveway and I purr with pleasure every time I go by. She takes four adults without a sniff, she blends in without shouting and I just cannot believe my good fortune.
The epitome of everything Mercedes have ever created all rolled into the perfect package.
