Does your Benz represent value for money? A quick poll.
ok, based on a couple of threads on this forum I want to do a quick (and thoroughly unscientific) poll on how happy we all are with our cars. Obviously this being a MB forum I only want replies based on MB ownership, as I appreciate some of you don't currently own one (you're always welcome).
Please enter your car model and year and a value of 1 for satisfied or 0 for not satisfied. No long post, no details of why, Just the 1 or 0.
This is to see if you really believe the car represents genuine value for money based on it's original sale price. You may think that it was worth every penny, looks fantastic, never goes wrong, and is built like a tank. In which case, give it a 1. It may never have broken down but if you just feel it rattles too much or eats tyres or veers to the left you'd probably give it a 0. If it costs you a fortune, always goes wrong and is built like a Ford Cortina you'd definately give it a 0.
After a couple of weeks we'll look at the numbers and see what percentage of owners genuinely feel their Benz represents value for money and lives up to their expectations. It'll be interesting to see if there is any obvious difference between the age of the car (the "old mercs are better than new ones" chestnut) and to see if those that complain (including myself) are just a vocal minority.
Thank you for your participation.
p.s. those that know how to make these threads "sticky" may want to do so for a couple of weeks so we can see the numbers
(Slinky edit:- yes it can be done, thread adjusted for continuity)
