All I can say is that I'm embarred to be Australian.

This cobbled together 'ad' is presented by Sally Mellor. She is not listed as an editor or contributor to the on-line magazine she is associated with, she's the go-to person for advertising enquiries. This magazine is for John Mellor's "the Mag" - a publication from a company called GoAuto.

The thing that pisses me off most about this is that the reason I have not been able to test drive a C63 yet is because the cars that have been made available to drive are still be used/abused by the calibre of this air head! Heaven forbid that I’ve already put money down and ordered one of these and I’d like a drive of one sometime before the end of the year!
