Found myself driving behind a gorgeous Mercedes and it had my name on it! Is it one of us?

It's got everything, including my plates. But it moves too fast for me to steal them!

I saw the same car six months ago on the A3, so it probably lives in my neck of the woods.

Probably much in line with the CL65. First owner of ours drove it 6000 miles and lost over £100,000 in depreciation.

It would be interesting to see how much the elderly chap we saw driving off from the local MB dealer in his brand new Sl65 (231) a couple of years ago, would get for his car now. Cost £186000 apparently. MB seem only to have sold 4 or 5 in the UK.

Having said that the guy we bought it off lost over £20k and only had it 18 months. At this rate it's going to be worth thrupence by the time we sell.
