no the proportion of Mercedes sales that are are private buys as opposed to fleet sales because reputation influences the private seller more than anything else

I really doubt many Mercedes above B class are private sales, most Mercedes are aimed squarely at business users.

Very true DM. Sensible MB buyers are all hovering in the "pre-owned market". Nearest I ever got was a pre-registered C Class - 10 miles on the clock, 25% off list.
