Has any members wive's , family have or had one of these and if so would you recommend them , as due to the weather up here starting to take a turn for the worse for the next few months ( i think) ......

I am in two minds of changing my Daughters Merc CLK Cabrio for one of these as they are about as much use as a chocolate fireguard in this weather .......

Have checked Whatcar etc etc but they mostly just give the same reviews , so was wondering if anyone on here actually has had one .....

Sorry but I steer clear of Mercs as I have no idea what they are about other than there are 7567 different models

I do have a very nice TDV8 to match yours though.... (Is that Spam enough Dan )

Other wise get her a Tiguan Sport with the leather (heated seats) and it has very wide nicely shod 18" wheels for a small 4X4 - fabulous looking car for a girl as it exudes style and quality. Mercs are far too brash and make you look a dick.

Told her about the Tiguan Gaz as i showed her the other night , But it's the Merc .... Volkswagen ,,,, Merc ....Volkswagen ..... scenario .......(Snob Factor) Teenagers ......

Tell her its actually the VW that has the class not the Chavy Merc

My young wife is in love already (and not with me):

Very Nice Gaz , never really seen many of them , but in the last two days since telling her about them i see them everywhere

Surely not as ubiquitous as FFRR though Mick

Back to the errrrrr topic........ Have driven M320 and 270 and found them underpowered, thirsty, not very comfortable adn not very big inside. However they were the old shape adn the new one is supposed to be a lot better (a chum has one adn really likes it but then he also had a RRS!) - personally i wouldn't buy one. What about the Toyota RAV4? This has a very good rating in the motoring press, if cheap to own adn run and has a pretty good softroad ability.

Cheers Dolpinboy for your input , The wiife's friend has one of the Rav 4's and the Daughter is not too keen on them ......

Porsche Cayenne? Honda CR-V?

Wife had a Honda CRV a few year back ....... She's not getting a Porsche it's me that will be paying the running costs ........ b ollock s to that .........

Fair do's. Audi Q5, Volvo XC60? ... I'll shut up now.

Audi Q5 ........ mmmmmm Off to check it out ...

I quite like them. Especially in white.
