MBWorld.org Forums - Rob's sad tale

Ok, so last Monday my C was nice and happy, looking pretty good and only months old.

Then some idiot didn't bother noticing that I had stopped and did this to my car.

I then had a big dilemma on my hands, my wife is very pregnant and due any day now so we needed a car asap, our other car only has 2 seats, not good for a family. Our insurance company were very sympathetic, they wrote the car off and have arranged an immediate payout.

I really wanted a new W204 c class wagon, I love them they are the best looking cars that Mercedes currently make, they drive superbly, but bad luck for me there isn't a single C220 CDI AMG sportpack stationwagon in Norway, an order will take 3 months, we couldn't wait that long. So out of total desperation I turned to the dark side, my local BMW dealer had a 320d Touring with Msport kit on the lot ready for delivery, much to my shame I bought it.

I will be back in a Mercedes soon, we have to replace our second car in a wee while so maybe an SLK or GLK will be joining the 3 series in the garage.

BTW are there any BMW pages as good as this one.
