Hi, Ian here.

I previously owned a CLK but traded it in for a BMW 120D M Sport in 2010. Moved to Dacia and then Renault after that but regretted parting company with the Merc the most. So, having a bit of cash to spare and thinking that now I'm in my late 60s I should buy something I'm going to stick with, in February, I traded my Kadjar in at Lookers in Ashford, Kent, for a used GLE SUV. 3-litre Diesel, 4matic, AMG line (I think that's everything). One pleasant surprise is the monthly cost of a servicing package - £20pm less than the Renault!

Mercedes are much nicer places to sit. Good decision.
