Our Cars (dream or actual)

It's the Japanese Mercedes…

I know, and they make very nice cars.  I'm biased, but I suppose it's a good fit for him.

Just quoting the Holy Scripture aka Alan Partridge…

@seanocono:

Damn, G. Just did some quick math, and that is a pretty sweet deal.

It is ridiculous.  Over the 2 years I have it, I will pay GBP13,520 in rentals.  It is a GBP76,000 car on the road.  After 2 years it will struggle to fetch GBP35,000 on the second hand market.  So 35K plus 13K = 48K, where's the other 28K gone?  Mercedes Benz must be making a profit on this deal, so it just goes to show what their real margins are….

[seanocono]

^Sounds like we chose the wrong business, G.  Congrats on your deal, and love that charcoal gray.

Speaking of margins, more obstacles in the way of progress:

Sean.  I think not.  It may cost me a few bob to dream up a new denim and sample a new cut.  But I suspect i'd struggle to the same thing with a new motor vehicle…..

[seanocono]

Haha. Can't argue with that logic.

@louisbosco:

LOL 

[natehate]

the front is sexy
the back not so much

[louisbosco]

i don't know. i kinda like the cla back design. but then again it's kinda like trying too much to be a cls. but then with the 2014 c and e class, they've done it almost similar to this and its nice..

[Finn666]

any TT fans in here

[louisbosco]

nah. too selfish for my liking. 

[Chris]

Don't do that.  Seriously, just don't.

[Seul]

Backing Chris. If you're a bloke driving a TT, this is the car I see (comes with a small dog you can walk and an extra section in the glovebox for your balls since you won't be using 'm):

My wife likes them….........

[Seul]

See!.. It's a girl's car, point finale.

[Chris]

My wife likes them, too.
