Not me but my wife.
Driving along the motorway over the weekend the sun was low in the sky, and streaming in through my side window, so I pulled the visor around to that window to block it.

I don't think I've ever owned a car that you couldn't move the visor to the side window.
E-Classes have two visors each side, so you can have one at the side and one at the front, for those times when the sun is either one side of the pillar or the other.Driving along the motorway over the weekend the sun was low in the sky, and streaming in through my side window, so I pulled the visor around to that window to block it.

For another £30,000 on top of an E-Class, the S-Class only has one. Pants.

Bank notes aren't legal tender anywhere in the UK.According to this Bank of England notes are legal tender in England and Wales.
