Was at my dealers last week (nottingham) to see they are now selling Maybach cars.
So I asked the lady the price, £360K
Now who on earth would buy a car for that much, If I had one of those cars I would expect to see it in the hands of my great great grandchildren at that type of money.

Yes, you could buy a decent house for that - but then the folk that buy them already have plenty of nice houses!
£360k may be a lot to us, but pro-rata, to Cowell, Madonna etc, it's a lot less that we spent on our Mercs. They don't have to trawl the finance co's or decide whether to buy it or have the bathroom done!

You can get a used one for £160k these days. You'd have to put up with a short wheelbase one though.

I saw one in London 30 mins after Chelsea won the premiership with a huge Chelsea flag fying out of the sunroof.

So they obviously appeal to extremely wealthy Russians :)

If I buy this small, understated, economical and cheap car would I qualify for all the waffle and twaddle you get when you buy a new one?

Wouldn't it be nice for someone at the end of a phone to send the misses flowers on your anniversary for you! :p
