1991 starlet owner Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 (edited) I was thinking of getting a merc, now looking at a 330d as I find the Merc's just look a little too boring and I wanna buy the car not the brand. Wait a couple of years and get a decent looking one!! Like a 62 plate or something with the quad lights:D Edited November 5, 2013 by 1991 starlet owner Quote Link to post Share on other sites

1991 starlet owner Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 Haha fair one! I must admit had a dumb moment as suddenly assumed you meant the C63 or something as I was looking at some on the bay last night. That would be sweet but the fuel would be rediculous! My mates 330 is bad enough.. Gets it down to 18 mpg... Wouldn't like to think what that would do! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
