Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Terrific (and my previous car was an SLK). It's easy to drive, very comfortable after five or more hours behind the wheel and above all, it feels safe.
What's it like to park?
Easy due to enhanced visibility offered by raised seating position.

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
No problems since purchase
What's most practical about your car?
Great load space - I travel a lot with a bicycle in the back and it fits in with ease (Mercedes have a special cycle rack that allows two bikes to stand upright when the rear seats are folded down).
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
I would say that the car itself is the best cycling accessory I have purchased! It has a really good quality sound system
