My first Mercedes was a C270 facelift, loved it, bought from Merc dealers. Took it back to trade a couple of years later he offered me peanuts. I'd had a few BMW's so took it to local dealership, they offered me more than Mercedes so bought a 335d. Two weeks later driving my "new" 335 bm, the Merc salesman rang to ask if I was still interested in the Merc, when I said I'd got a much better deal and bought a bm he was really pissed off. Tough sh1t on him.
