Fifty something and still learning.
I wanted a Mercedes Benz ever since I saw them In Bond movies back in the 60's, but the road to true love is never easy.
First car was a Fiat 500 then a series of Mini's including a Cooper, a Vauxhall Viva then a Firenza and a DTV tuned VX-4/90 followed by an Austin Allegro (1750HL) before getting a Ford Cortina, various even sadder Vauxhalls, a Ford Orion! all 'practical' enough but nothing ever seemed quite right...... must I go on?
After so many years yearning for a Mercedes and never quite being able to take the plunge I got fed up with the way VW Golf's were going (only the Mk.1 is worthy in my opinion) and did the right thing.
Now me and My Mercedes are very happy together, if only I had realised sooner.
