(from the barges thread - cross posted to a wider audience)

We have recently exchanged our Saab estate for a new(er) Merc.

The Saab was named Lisbeth (may her wheels always be shod with proper tyres). This one has been named Angela.



Debadged of course;



Funky roof;



Expensive HiFi;



Distracting TV and 6 disc DVD changer;



Sufficient propulsion.




The number plate is not mine, and the car will be reverting to a normal plate as soon as the DVLA can process the paperwork.

Lovely looking estate these, been looking at the various models and prices recently, 2010 onwards, especially the 350 CDI V6 as no way I could afford to run a V8.
What year is this?
2010. The 350cdi is probably the better car (and far easier to find) but would have been more expensive...

Regarding the plate; you may be able to guess the previous owners initials I suspect.

Yes, 385 odd bhp, and similar torque.
Sufficient.

They don't make a 'normal' large petrol e class any more.

Blatant bump for an update. The clever tyre pressure thing works well, just don't ask me how I know... frown
