Summary
What does this car say about you?
Bold maybe? But definately quirky!
What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?
It is certainly a talking point; mostly everyone loves it, including the wife - which can't be half bad?
Would you buy this car again and why?
Yes. It is a real shame that production was stopped in early 2008.
What are you likely to buy next?
Not quite sure. But I'm in no hurry now. Hoping for a good summer this year to get out on the road and enjoy it. Fingers crossed there!

No

£0

Is there any special reason why you bought this car?
Fancied something different; quirky!
What was the dealer like?
Extremely helpful.

Driving it
What's it like to drive?
An absolute pleasure and it is a head-turner.
What's it like to park?
Not difficult. But the rear design does restrict vision somewhat; but that is true of many of today's modern cars.

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
No, touch-wood. Still early days, but I wanted to share my experience thus far and my initial research that lead to the purchase.
What's most practical about your car?
These cars are much maligned and I don't understand why? In essence, it is a Mercedes which was designed by a British designer and owned by an Amercian Parent Company. The smoothness of the power delivered by the 3.2 V6 is an absolute joy. Moved up from an 2002 MGTF and I wish I had done it earlier. The car is far superior in every respect.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
The car's Infinity cD/radio stereo system is truly awesome. Again, power with refinement.
