How do you think you would go driving with this?

   It's a new Mercedes.

    Personally, I don't fancy it at all, imagine an emergency situation with no wheel to hang onto, or going into a slide?
    No pedals either, it's all on the yoke.
     Maybe the younger gen's would do OK, but.........? :o

r.u.sure thats not a boeing 747?...I love it.. I wish my lounge room looked like that... or maybe the laundry..just walk in press a button push a joy stick is it called...and bobs your uncle all done..

all with one hand.. what do you do with the other hand???..

      Other hand?  ::)    

           Given the price of a new Merc, you'd probably be searching the ash-tray for small-change, or playing with something blonde and bumpy! ;D

          This is the full car.

Imagine trying to keep that interior clean....

Easy, as long as you keep the child-proof locks engaged! ;D

Although, I wouldn't let my brother near it either, he spontaneously generates mess even with empty hands and pockets, d*mned if I know how he does that! ;D

Does it come in left-handed?

Still no dedicated spot to put the handbag!  :(

I like it but I am not that sure about mercs.

They've got all the cred, I know, but get this. One of my friends bought a new one about 11 years back.
I disgraced myself as when I hopped in, I said nice car, what is it, a Honda? me having no experience with high end cars and all. :-/
Or even brand new cars, for that matter. ;D

But anyway, fast forward to about 12 months ago.
My friend's car was in need of a major service, which normally costs about $5000 apparently.
She wanted to trade it in but it developed a major problem that would cost thousands to fix.
End result: She only got about $5000 trade in for the 10 year old car. At least, I think it was $5k, it may have been only $2k.

My 15 year old Toyota corolla could do better than that.

So I'll wait for the Toyota or Honda versions of the car, thanks. ;)

I'm just curious about what that thing sticking up out of the recess in the door is.....

it is beautiful   but probably like most things totally  useless... I knew a lady whos husband owned a classic car rental business...and every once in a while she went out in the Bently...it drove her mad.. she could only park it a million miles from any other car...she didnt dare drive over a road with loose gravel on it.. she went home with a massive headache when ever she used it..afraid someone would run up the back of her...

who needs that?
my old battered camry still does it for me..

OK then.  We are thinking about getting a new car, so I guess we should cross Mercedes-Benz off the list.....
