I'm very happy with my Omega, but just out of curiosity, age aside, how does it compare with the Omega.

I only ask because I had originally considered buying one of these, but never ended up taking one for a drive.

You should go and drive one!  ;)

Seriously it drives better than my omega......ok ride is harder.....no armchairs.....no soft seats...but gear changing is faultless....you dont know its changing gear...sooo smooth

TBH if i had choice.....i would sell the vx's and keep the merc.....but i dont the merc is too old and has to go  :(

The add on ebay is pretty honest.....saying whats gone wrong with it....since ive owned it....over 4 years now! i think that pretty good compared to omegas!!

I've just had a Mercedes CLK thingy as a hire car.  Quite surprised, went to Drax in an S60 2.0lT Volvo, came back in the Mercedes, more road noise, more engine noise and slower (even in S mode).  More economical but I was disappointed.  Would have had the Volvo over the Merc :-?

Id be surprised a merc clk was slower than a 2.0 volvo.....just about all mercs have a supercharger on them...petrol engines that is.....the diesels are pretty pokey as well....what was the merc clk have as the engine?

CLK suffers from poor chassis.  Look how much trouble the powerful ones have putting the power down.  My brother had one as a company car a couple of years back, he couldn't wait to get rid of it.

I have seen this car in the flesh and its in amazing condition give its mileage and its been a taxi. Still amazed at the price they go for even with big miles...

Would have done nicely for Euro land that but cannot afford 3k+  :(
