Flis has gone.... Vinnie is here

 

Ok,ive gone down in mpg but my word, tis a different kettle of monkeys altogether

 

Smaller cabin, bigger load area, and double the BHP, not checked the torque figures yet

 

205bhp/7 speed auto/paddle shift (why bother?)

 

 

 

 

Handsome beast!  (the car, that is)

I know there is a Superb out there with almost the same spec and toys (mines the E250 AMG sports)

 

but damn it.................i wanted it.... at 62 its "maybe" the last car ill buy (for work)

 

 

engine looks wide enough to be a V8 (I wish)

 

 

 

Power	204 PS - 150 kW - 201 BHP
Torque	500 Nm - 370 lb/ft

The dealer had an S class hatchback/saloon, my son dragged me away from it

You pays your money and makes your choice. Superb is a lot of car for the money and may make some Merc owners tearful when you see what you do and don't get. 

 

I am sure it's a nice place to be and in a different class altogether. 

What model is it Litch?

I was gonna scratch that post and write - bet you £1000 it's an E250, probably an AMG Sports.................Lol.

Is it affected by the recently announced Merc dieselgate recall?

Agreed, ive been some Elegance models and also a new MK3 L&K at the dealers

 

 

Very nice, all the best with it!  Must be a nice step up in refinement and comfort, not that there's anything wrong with the Superb!

I would say, Ive had a Mondeo 130PS 6 speed (crazy but smokey) The Superb, and now the merc BUT, between the Mondeo and Superb I had a Chevvy....

 

Well, ok, a Daewoo, built in Korea with an Italian diesel engine and TBH, it was bigger inside than the Superb...

 

Looks like the big Honda (model?) but no dealer network now and parts like.............Ford x 10 in price

 

i would also say, my Epica................ the damn thing has NEVER failed an MOT shes passed all since 2011
