I've become that discerning gentleman i've always desired to be. I aspire to be like this
I just need to grow some hair first :grin:
The tweed suit and matching cap are on order already though with all the money i'm saving on fuel :evilgrin:

Hi Carl
Rocking an E250 Coupe at the moment on a stupid stupid cheap contract hire deal, can only back you up on everything you've said...everything feels stupidly well built, mine goes back in a year and I'm really hoping that getting back into a VAG won't be quite as disappointing as I expect it to...
As long as you don't opt for a entry level engine, they do indeed pile the spec on...its not uncommon depending on the desired spec to in essence get the next engine up for practically nothing, my four cylinder is only 212BHP but feels like it would pull the side of your house off, that 6 potter in a C Class must feel very good indeed.
You really feel it on longer journeys, I'm regularly doing Preston Stansted and it seems to take half as long in my head....The seats are particularly good, they feel really firm initially but you have so much adjustment available back pain (which I suffer from) is a thing of the past, I've got orthopaedic sports seats and its awesome

Thanks Dave. :happy2:
Yup it certainly is a cracking engine and it just feels so effortless. I haven't been out in it today as I've had to help pack for our holiday :confused: I took less kit away on tour for 7.5months than we are for 3 weeks :grin:
But i am itching to get out in it again and looking forwards to drive into Europe this week.
I need to chat to you about Brakes anyhow but i'll send you a PM if that's ok?
