Thanks for the hearty welcome all. I'm not going to try the multi-quote thing. Can't wait to take delivery this week.

Angelo - I will not be doing any mods to the car other than wheels initially. Just going to enjoy it & debug it if there are any gremlins.

Long term I will not be doing anything to the car that could not have come from Benz. Modifying cars in SA destroys their value. Here people want the vehicle to be all Benz & the Service Book to be stamped by the dealer for every service. Fortunately the dealership I use is owned by MBSA and excellent. This will be my third car from them, previous two new & they treat you as though you own a couple of bricks in the building. I'm even allowed to supervise my own services.
