Took advantage of the recent 2 days of good summer weather and gave the car a decent clean after sitting unwashed for 2 weeks; I no longer feel guilty when I leave for work in the morning!

Love it!

Thinking on doing similar with my S-Class.

Thats cracking. How do you find it compared to your W221? The non-openmouth design steering wheels is much nicer.

Hiya, no just a 350 diesel. Blinged it up a bit as the interior is what makes an S. I was going to get the S500 hybrid but decided better to option it up, hybrid is great but once out of the electric it turns into a petrol v6 so fuel economy is worse. I do a lot of long trips so it didn't make much sense. If you live in London and it's a company car the hybrid makes 100% sense. The 350 is quick enough anyway but I do miss the old S65, that car was fantastic. This is on another planet though. W221 is a great car, but the ride, gadgets and quality is on another level in the W222. The stereo is fantastic, blew me away last night, literally! lol It's a great drivers car believe it or not, even on the lanes, suspension in sport/sport copes brilliantly with UK roads so you can cover ground quickly but it never loses composure.

The seats look very nice are they vented too? I expect leather finishes have moved on a bit but my Lotus had a Magnolia leather interior and It was murder after wearing jeans in it.

Yes, vented. Dye transfer is a problem for sure, I don't wear jeans very often only pair I have are 20 years old so should be ok! lol

Been driving mine, bought "pre-owned" (how I hate that expression!) two years back and it does what it says on the tin. 50,000 miles so far, 45 mpg, good aircon, lifeless steering, but as a daily it ticks every box. Just another 200,000 to go before I sell it.
