I thought Citroën was there in the early 70s with SM model. It had the lights that resemble this Benz design.

hi KnightRider

Can you update about your new E. How many mile do you have now?? Is there any defect on the car? I heard that first-year car has many problems especially wih the electronic/computer.

thanks

yipikaye,
We have about 4500 miles on the car. The real driving which we bought the car for hasn't started yet, so it's on a low side, but the first oil service is coming up in about 500 miles. After that it's more or less every 13700 miles.
We don't have any problems with the car and we would have bought it in the way we did (early production cars) if we were to choose again. No regrets at all.
I can wash the car and take some pics again if anyone is interested. Since we got a digital camera now it will be a much easier task than before.
