fucking amazing drive. first time i have driven an auto, so took a bit of getting used to driving with one foot.

went on an A-road, and hit 80, hit 100 with ease, luxury motor.

2.3 liters. little bit better then my 1.7D corsa lol.

yes its very wierd, there's more use of the break. my dad told me to tuck my left foot under my right leg, so i am not tempted to use it. driving with one foot rocks

i took it round the corner to impress some ladies. my attempt......succeeded!

The seats in them Mercs are proper uncomfortable, just like two planks of wood with fabric over them.

the handleing is superb on this car, amazing the way it takes corners, it feels glued to the ground

this isnt a c180, its a 230 coupe.
