    I am nothing but polite and courteous and use my indicators at all times. So this Mercedes driver bashing is very unfair! :)

    I’m great thanks, E350 coupe or cabriolet? I liked mine very much, very comfortable and quite quick. I love the look of the new E series cabriolet but gosh they’re damn expensive now, though I wouldn’t swap my SL400 for one.
