Love the review, thanks – I bought one of these and have never been more pleased with the versatile hangar on wheels. Your pics are upside down though – and I hope you didn’t have ‘plenty of petrol left in the tank’… because this is a diesel.

Oh this would be nice Charlie, especially as some nitwit wrote off my car a couple of weeks ago. Thank goodness none of us were hurt! Great review and love the three sunroofs xox

That is a fun job! 🙂 I love Mercedes and very easy to drive. We don’t have this one here in the US. Otherwise all the mini-van drivers will shift to this car! For a big car like this, the big sky light really helps. It was fun reading your review (and you did a great job!).

This is perfect, my CEO had put me on the ‘car committee’ my work needs a people mover in the next few months, to the top of the list goes this bad boy. Thanks for sharing. 🙂

You look fabulous behind the wheel Charlie. I think this should be a permanent addition to the family.

Now that’s a great “people mover” and how nice to have it at your disposal for a full week. Sounds like you took it everywhere . I would have, too. I’ve absolutely no use for a vehicle that large but I sure would love to own one. One thing, though, Charlie. How ever did you drive it with its steering wheel being on the wrong side like that? 😀

Lucky you, though it would have been insured, I would have been shit scared I would crash it lol

This is quite the car! My daughter and son-in-law would love something like this for their family. I’m in the “Prius” stage of my life, and no longer want the big guys, but they sure are beautiful. I do think the visibility is wonderful, and always a big plus. I am going to remember your reference to “ditherers.” I haven’t used that word in years, and it fits a certain category of drivers just perfectly! I’d take Carl up on his offer. 🙂

Pete and I are in the market for a new SUV type vehicle. We need the extra space for bikes and the like, not children so also look for seats that can be removed or put down.
How fun to drive this for a week Charlie. What a pity they didn’t offer you one at cost price afterwards.
Have super day.
🙂 Mandy xo

How cool is that? I’d love to test drive a car, but I would hope for something a little sportier since I don’t have the need to move people. We actually don’t have that model here, or at least I haven’t noticed it. It sounds like your experience with that dealership was good too.
