I have a thing for older merc diesel wagons
Guess it's because I sort of grew up with them,along with 190Ds since they are extremely common in Ukraine. They're not that rare in Ireland in all fairness but so many people ruin them by 'stancing' them too much and often have horrible service intervals. Not only that but insurance is hilarious. I'll get one though,mark my words! Be it with dodgy eastern european car salesmen or restoring a slammed one from some dole dutchie scummer

They were available through Honda NSX approved dealers in the UK, remember seeing one at 2 Mills Honda back in the 90s but they are pretty rare here. New 2015 version may see a few more here possibly?

Haha what's wrong with the insignia? We hired one when the car was in the garage and it was nice.

They handle badly, the brakes are gash. The SRi is nice but only if you get the 2.0l petrol or the 2.2 diesel. The 1.8 petrol is THE most gutless piece of crap I've ever had the misfortune to drive. The under thigh leg support on the SRi is adjustable which is good, but not so on the lower spec models which means they don't support your leg properly when you're driving. The wing mirrors show you f*ck all and the rear 3/4 vision when reversing is non-existant. Cruise control is too aggressive going uphill and the gearbox is standard GM notchy crap.

Mine is very attainable, just need 15K for a good one and only a need to drive it when it's working (couple weeks a year). Lottery wins etc would obviously increase the reach of my dreams for cars, P1 the current one there.

Buddy of mine used to have the 4.5l Cerbera. Fantastic car to drive but perfectly fitted the description that it was like having a kit car in reverse. You pay a load of money for a car then it turns into a pile of bits around you....Mine is very attainable, just need 15K for a good one and only a need to drive it when it's working (couple weeks a year). Lottery wins etc would obviously increase the reach of my dreams for cars, P1 the current one there.
