Bargain at £170,000.00 for a Merc hatchback.

170k would be a bargain. It's going to be more like £900k+ with only 25 being made.

Sorry yes, I meant £710,000. Advertised at a million dollars. A VERY expensive Merc hatchback.

Watched this yesterday very interesting read!

That being said he didnt mention the interest rates on used cars which is another big factor! Im after a 7 seater and was looking at a Defender from Land Rover today and the interest was 14.9% eye watering! Made the monthlies as much as buying a new one.

Yes, I have been hearing adverts on the radio for 'approved used' VWs recently. I think their interest rate is something like 14%. That's ridiculous, especially when interest rates are falling in general.

Just back from Florida and my grandson spotted a Barabus behind us, I said ah its one of those jeeps and he said its one of a few made and worth over £700 k/£1m....ridiculous for what looked like a merc jeep. This though looks nice

I'm not a fan of that.

I'd rather have an Aston Martin Zagato Shooting Brake.

At that price I'm never going to need to wonder whether I like it or not!

Me neither.
I could sell my house and live on the street aswell as cash in my pension and use every penny in the bank to buy one of those......or....be warm and comfortable and not have one.

That was a Merc G wagon. With 850bhp admittedly. A 2.5 tonne dinosaur of a car. Just why?
