So went for a little test drive today. Looking at the coupe but went out I a spider instead and nearly got my hand taken off as I didn't know the roof was being raised! Well, it's a little bit fast isn't it! The car I drove didn't have a sports exhaust but didn't sound too bad as standard. Loads of settings. Too many to take in at one time but overall very very impressed. It really does smooth out a lot of lumps and bumps. Of course it's not going to be a limousine but compared to most standard setups appears to filter out the worst of it. Overall the cars separate parts all come together to make a pretty amazing drive and this is only from a test drive that lasted less than an hour. Looks like dealer will get a very early wake up call tomorrow!

Should mention that it was a 650s! For some strange reason also managed to post to the Mercedes forum first time around!

Yep for sure. It never disappoints and any doubts will be blown away so expect an update in due course. Last test drive I took saw my original budget stretch by an extra 50% and £80k but its worth it

It's the very well known male affliction called man maths! I've done the same way too many times. I'm sure I'll be cured one day!
