Yeah it will. I have a Masata strut brace on order for it at the moment. If anything, the Merc will keep the miles low on the 440 lol.
It was time for the mrs car to be changed. She wanted a convertible and I’ve fancied trying a Merc, so we got this It has way more tech than the 440 and power wise, it’s about the same, but without the turbo lag.

I parked this right outside the front of Morrisons the other day (when it was warm and not raining) with the roof down. When I came out I watched for a minute and almost everybody that walked past it looked and some had a good nose (maybe cos they thought they could nick something from inside. I don't know).
Pretty car IMO

Not the most picturesque of settings, a motorway services. Car is clean though.

I was somewhat playing to the crowd haha. When I had my discovery, I followed one and really admired the teardrop shape of the glasshouse and the sculpting of the haunches. Still like the back of it. Stood 20 feet away head on looking at the front, less so!

You need an SUV for the perfect view. A proper tall and heavy one. You’d love that too 🤣

I still admire F36s almost 8 years after buying and 5 years after selling. Bonnet shut line aside, they got that car soooo right.

These have cannibalised/replaced the x5 and are hard not to see. I see plenty of them popping up. Be warned!
