Well after just under 20 years of being a Mercedes man I no longer have one.
Tbh I’ve kind of fallen out of love with Mercedes over some of the silly things that have gone wrong with my cars over the years. Mostly involving water leaks on my cabriolet and SL’s.
The Aircap fault on my E class is just stupid and ridiculously expensive to fix when Merc know it’s a known issue with zero serviceable parts in an £800 part.
So I found myself scouring the web looking for anything but Mercedes for the past 6 months ... I think , and this is my own personal opinion , that I see none of the current Merc models styling that I like other than the SL - and I’m not going there again.
So yesterday I drove the E up to Bicester where I parted with it for a very nice Audi A5 2.0L TFSI sLine Quattro Black Edition Plus (stupidly long name for a car tbh) ..
I will leave my account here - you never know I may be back.
