Here is the list from the Top Gear top 50 cars survey, from the BBC website.
Cars were rated on reliability, driving enjoyment and dealer service.
Mercedes doesnt seem to have made it to any position on the list ..perhaps this could be a wake up call to MB to go back to previous glory days when Mercedes cars were truly over-engineered.
