Thou shalt not use cheap fuel. you dont drive cheap car so feed it good fuel.

Just like your body.

Thou shalt not fill the car up ! never put more than half a tank in otherwise you'll get crap mpg because of the extra 65kg of Fuel. 1/2 is good.

If your in a jam turn it off. look ahead more and you'll break a lot less, dring up someone's ass causes wara and makes you stressed sit back and chill and when the time comes remember you have a mercedes and overtake effortlessly.

Leave bigger gaps and your mpg will rocket.

Thats all y'all

Makes a lot of sense, Leaving a gap gets me around 3-4mpg - golden rule - dont brake unless you absolutely have to as braking just turns expensive petrol into heat and brake dust. Just drop the throttle (cover the brake) and coast until you're about to hit the car in front. 9 out of 10 times, they will pick up and pull away before you have to press the brake. Hell we have ABS,BAS, fat tyres etc so we can stop quicker anyway.

I'd love to run 1/2 full but I'd be filling up daily as I use 1/3 of a tank a day!
£50 this morning and I'll be back in on Saturday for another load.

if there is any connection to religion owning a merc, then mine is up for sale.

nothing but trouble from then bible bashers. all holier than tho types are just so false.

and so is filling the petrol companies pockets by getting over priced fuel which has no benefits.


here endeth the lesson.

Yeah, its all good advice but if you really want economy then I guess you should have bought a suzuki swift or something. The Merc is never going to be economical.

I realised a long time ago that rushing around doesn't really get you there much quicker. Once I got that in my head my wallet reaped the benefit.

Good to see the budget left the motorist alone for a change though.

I agree Mr S.

Please dont mistake me for religious. I hate religion, tis the cause of war and misery.

I'd like to go around Jehovahs Witnesses house and suggest they do drugs and get laid.

I'd like to prove that Godd doesnt exist / proving that he does exist is equally unlikely. and then laugh at all the idiots who wasted their lives living as their so called go wishes.

I'd like to see the Church explain why they hide paedophiles. Blessed are the Children.

Rant over.

And lo the owner of the S-class did lie down with the owner of the A-Class.

And the Lord did smite those upon the board of Daimler Chrysler who sullied the name of Benz with that of Chrysler.

He maketh me bend over in green pastures while I am royally shafted by the sodomites of the local dealership.

And upon receiving the word I did descend into the bowels of hell where I saw the mark of the beast, and the mark was three letters and the letters were BMW.

Upon staring upon the mark there was a sharp intake of breath as I saw that it was good and had stolen the crown of build quality from the house of Stuttgart.


Thinking of changing my user name to Reverend129.

Serious about the BM's though!
