I think you need to talk to my SLK. After 16 months, the electrics have STILL not failed.

The DVD player works fine. The Navigation works fine. The electric steering column works fine. The automatic electric seats still work fine. The automatic climate control works fine. The roof still works fine, and it's one of the most complicated things one can make for a car.

Everyone has a neighbour, cousin, friend that has an MB which fails. How come mine still works? How come my old SLK still worked when I sold it? How come my fathers 10 year old C class is still running like it was new?

Oh, and for this car, I'd give it something between cool and uncool, but I'll give it cool to even things out a bit here :roll: I saw the car in person, and whilst it was full of interesting gadgets, I'm not really into this kind of cars.
