Off Topic Cars

ML350 Might suit sweats. lovely.

 

They’re ace.

Just need a swastika on the side of them and a gun turret.

 

2.5 R5. It's not as fast as the 3.0 altitude or the insane 5.0 V10. But it's economical (for a 2 and half tonne wagon) and it's the same engine in the VW T5 Transporter, so it's easy to work on and parts are cheap and plentiful. Nice cars, my one is an old one on an 06 plate, but it's still high spec and luxurious to drive. I drive on a few tracks, green lanes and muddy fields from time to time, so the 4x4 is useful.

 

Its all about personal taste. My last SLK was black. This one looks the bollocks imho.

Not sure what you mean about the bins mate.

 

you never thought about a pick up. ideal for you. ford ranger?

 

wheels

 

Ok god no. The alloys are fine thank you very much.

Not keen on black alloys. Some cars suit them, some don't.

 

Me and my Hyundai will stay out of this.

 

Merc or jag?

 

you had to ask

burley is purely a merc man

 

I’ve never driven one.

I am looking out for a c class ideally c350. May consider c220. Want it in white with black wheels.

My issue with merc’s are they change the shape so frequently they age badly. Audi’s and beamers age well. You can drop a private plate in and only certain enthusiasts can tell the age.

 

the range of mercs now are the best looking they've had for a long time

 

Current one is an SLK.

I had a gun-metal grey jag a few years ago but it was as uncomfortable as **** .

 

That is bloody annoying I agree.

My wife's got an E coupe. Lovely car to drive but I still can't get the seat the way I want it, with my dodgy back.

 

Agreed. The latest shape with the slopey boots are lovely.

Local garage is trying to get me to go see an e350 coupe.

XF?? Have read that certain models without the nice seats are uncomfortable. No lumbar support.

 

No it was just the X. And yeh, no lumbar support. Used to drive it with a cushion stuffed down behind me!!

 

X type was just an expensive mondeo.

What year is the wife’s e class coupe? What engine? Colour?

 

I think its a 2.2, irridium silver, panoramic roof. Could do with more poke tbh but the commute would be even more expensive.

 

It’s a big car that needs a bigger engine.

The Audi TT’s I’ve looked at are all 2ltr waiting to see if a good one comes up locally.

The garage with the silver xf the guy I spoke to was a bit of a twat which is putting me off travelling to look at it.

 

It does need a bigger engine. Definitely. Long story behind her getting it but won't bore the **** on here.

My youngest is after an Audi A5 coupe.

I love them. Was hoping my wife would get one last time. Either that or a Jag F-Pace but she went back to Merc.
