second GLK

me and the wife is debating if we need to get another GLK as we are constantly arguing who gets the van when we don't car pool. I can't take the van to lug around clients and go to business meetings (no offense) but most of the time I get the van and I just park really away. Now we are talking of getting another Merc but the idea of having 2 exact cars is a little hard to swallow. So I want to get some opinions on what to get other than the GLK yet has the appeal and elegance of the GLK.

I think "his and hers" GLKs is kinda cool.

Maybe black for you and white for her..?

tough one, I'd be tempted to get another GLK. Q5 is nice, but nowhere near as sexy as the GLK.

Now I know that there is no comparison but look at the new 2012 M class and the Ford Explorer. Could be brother and sister but the Ford is much less expensive and clients might not mind. The Explorer has a lot more room. A second GLK is no fun. Or if you like a sedan that doubles as a wagon look at the new Audi A7, it's awesome!!!

Just get the ML... . Tell her she can keep the GLK since you know how much she loves it, and you will suffer with the ML....

I still am very much in love with the look of the current GLK model although it's been over a year since I bought it. I've had the GL for almost 3 years. But the first time I saw the GLK, the first thing I told my wife was. We'll get that one. (wifey's into Lexus, I love lexus though when it comes to comfort, literally and the packages you get with it).
But I have been an MB fan since I was a kid and grew up liking the scent of it's interior.

The new Audi Q5 is nice but over time you get tired of its look. The new X3. For my taste, is not too impressive. But then again, it is all subjective.

I've been off for the last 8 days and just glad I have the time to visit this website.

May I add and kindly suggest. Just wait for the new GLK, I hope it'll be out in two years or so.

Nice choice but I think he's interested in a SUV or sportwagen, so the E class wagen would have been perfect but I think it's no longer coming to our shores!

Ditto XC60 for me as well. Awesome car and a bit more usable given the larger cargo space.

I am waiting for the GLK Bluetec, as soon as it can be ordered I will probably do an euro delivery and then we will be a two GLK household.
