At nearly £150 to replace and no manual alternative this is NOT a security system - it is a threat.
I have always liked big cars with big engines, and this Mercedes satifies all my needs.
Fantastic engine with outstanding overtaking skills. Road handling is very good, with excellent grip and control. A really delightful drive with no major flaws.
