On the road
Driving
Awsome - nothing to compare with its perfection. Smoth as silk; just did a 600mile round trip - it was like going around the corner in terms of effort. Sporty handling, but with comfort and grace.
Performance
Very rapid - nought to endorsment in about 8.5 seconds. Great brakes and road holding, too. Supercar performance with Rolls-Royce comfort.
-
Living with it
Reliability
Never gone wrong - just put petrol in tank, tyres on wheels and get it serviced on time.
Image
It's the ultimate Limo - presidential/tycoon/pop-star status symbol and accessory - only a Rolls has more image.
Comfort
Sumptous and opulance come to mind - a herd of cows and a forest were sacrificed to build the interior.
-
Security and Service
Security
The alarm fitted at factory is low spec - needs upgrading.
Service
Mercedes treat you like nobility and are absolutely straight and on the level.
