We are looking after a friends ML whilst they are on holiday. The last time the husband was away it got stolen off their drive, so they thought it would be safer with us :)

I've not been inside one of these before and I had quite a surprise when I tried it out for size the other day. I managed to get in the car, but I had a hell of a job getting out and quite literally had to jump out as my feet where nowhere near the ground :shock:

I am only small, but I guess a lot of people buy these cars that have kids and I'm sure I am taller than some of them. Small people, high heels and ML's just don't go together ;)

Ah well, you will never grow to be a big girl, thank goodness. If you want a hand, getting in and out,just ask.

I wish we still had the C200SE, but we had to sell it a few months ago and I can't bring myself to change my signature :cry:

don't think an ml is any higher than the average people carrier or has any more street cred, as all they are is school run hairdressers cars....

Suggest you read the What Car magazine report written by people who know what they are talking about.
