Good man. Nothing like a bit of bangernomics. That said, there's always something that needs doing on old motors.
As long as it costs less than £300 to get it through the MOT, persist with it. Did that for years when I was racking the miles up on a Mondeo diesel. Finally failed on emissions and managed to get £600 cash for it.
The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world that he didn't exist
Mercedes CLS 350 here, approaching 2nd birthday, and previously a XF. Gotta love these big 6 pot diesels for motorway mile munching. As for next, the (re)search has commenced and current favourites are new E class, A6/A7 or maybe - leftfield choice - Volvo S90 T8
I like that engine we have it in an ML. I heard a rumour that they are doing a CLS400 with the new SL petrol engine in it I think I saw one in covent garden the other week but it wasn't around long enough to confirm.
But for our family
Me SL350 - keeping it.
Wife ML350 - might go back for a CLS next year...
Old cars not in order as such
Lots of Saabs
93 SE - 51 style Cabrio
95 Aero
93 2.8 v6 Aero Cabrio
93 a 1999 SE Convertible
TT 3.2 Dsg Convertible (killed by its ******* gear box )

Tell me none of you Mercedes owners have one of the recent models with this monstrosity in it:
I like Mercs from the outside and would love an AMG SL or a GL but those displays are hideous - look like they've stuck on a child's "my first tablet" to the dashboard.

I think there is an Audi or 2 that has the same sort of blutacked on display on the dashboard...
