Re: Sics Consolidated Moderns Thread - 2003 Mercedes-Benz E320 Estate

It reminds me very much of the Saab 9-3 I had. The drive position and control responsiveness makes me so much calmer and less stressed when driving. Like I can't be bothered to overtake a dawdler. I could but can't be bothered. Likewise if someone is right up my arse, I'll pull in and let them go. ...

16 miles, uphill, cross country. Diesels take an age to warm-up and anything with a DPF would choke-up. The return is downhill all the way.

I could be interested. As much as I feel a 1.0 Micra will take me back to being 17, I think its work will be cut out on the new commute.
