As the title says. I have had a years of fun in a big V8. I want more refinement now.

Thinking of a Merc CLS 320CDI on around a £10k budget. Seems to be plenty on the web for that price or less.

Main things to look out for?

Cheers.

Stop being a girl and get the CLS 500.

I did a year ago and love it. Mine has £12k worth of extras including all the AMG kit and wheels and I have had to change a doorhandle (keyless entry) which is very common, also my power open/close boot malfunctioned which I traced to some broken wires in the loom and soldered up (relatively common)

Air suspension can be an issue (mine is ok so far but did have a new compressor in 2010)

Sooo much car for the money and I only do 6k a year so the fuel costs aren't ruinous.
