Therealchucknorris Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 Good shout! Ta, love the look of them but they're not on my company list so just appreciate them from the other side of the dealership when I replace my Audi A6 in the next couple of months.

Will Poon Posted March 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 The cls shooting brake is nice but it's the same price as a 2-3 year old S class. There's quite a wide varied look on cars at this price range Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scully Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 Having just sold my parents house I have been telling OH I've been touring Mercedes dealerships looking at G-Wagons. She isn't too impressed but I haven't told her I'm not serious. To spend more than 10 grand on any vehicle would seriously grieve me I'm afraid. I simply don't believe they're worth it unless you're buying something that will appreciate in value rather than depreciate, but that's just me. There are some truly stunning vehicles out there. Must admit I like the V W Toureg. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mungler Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 (edited) Having just sold my parents house I have been telling OH I've been touring Mercedes dealerships looking at G-Wagons.

I simply don't believe they're worth it unless you're buying something that will appreciate in value rather than depreciate, but that's just me. There are some truly stunning vehicles out there. Must admit I like the V W Toureg. This. Cars are an inherent waste of money and a depreciating asset. £40k ready to go round here gets a BTL with £1300 PCM coming in on an interest only mortgage of £700, and cheeky capital appreciation in the background. Don't lose sight of the fact that you haven't actually spent your £40k, you have merely moved it somewhere. If you're desperate for £35k of motor, lease one. If you're in the restaurant game with a stack of readies to loose I'd still do something other than £35k on a motor Edit Incidentally I sort of looked at this before deciding my next lease car in May this year when the current one goes back. The answer is the SQ5 as the 'do-all' car. This time I can get the wife, kids and dog in the car, it's diesel and the mpg is amazing BUT it books a 0-60 of 5 seconds.... (And has 4 exhaust pipes which appealed enormously to child in me). Edited March 6, 2014 by Mungler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will Poon Posted March 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 I've leased cars in the past sometimes the manufactures give great deals on a new model that's just come out, a few years back when the Audi Q7 came out I leased one from a dealer for £395 pm all in with no deposit. The more expensive the car the more it depreciates my current car is the E 350 cdi coupe . Fantastic car but after 3 years I'm lucky to get 20k in p/x There's 2 year old S classes for a tad over 30k when they were new your talking mid 70's that's a big saving Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
