Okay thanks. Thinking of ordering an edition 1 I guess the wheels could be an issue on that. Any experience with the Matt paints? Have you driven one? If so how was it? Can’t get a test drive where I live. They don’t have any.

Do you think I’d like driving it? I’d be moving from a C63 coupe. Fancy something a bit bigger and more comfortable.

I think if you're chucking £143+ large at the car, you're old enough to make up your own mind.

Went for a test drive yesterday. As a hardcore fan of the original G and its shape. I wasn't impressed initially with the roundedness of this new model.

However, after seeing it in the flesh and driving it. I am amazed. What a great car, super fast and smooth as anything compared to the original.

Yes definitely. It has super fast acceleration, comfort and ace interior. It felt more like the other AMG mercs, rather than a G

Thanks. Good to hear. Kind of reply I was looking for in that it does have that AMG feel to it.

How was the new instrument panel when the sun shines on it?
