Insignia Sports Tourer is much better for rear head room, like wise the E Class estate

The disappointment with the E Class is that noone bothers to order the decent seats

Al, do they not come with decent seats as standard?

No. Fully adjustable memory seats are a hefty option, so people don't bother with them... utter stupidity akin to buying a brand new Astra with the standard lights before you have driven it in the dark... only to find that the £1000 AFL xenons are worth every single penny but will cost £4000 to retro fit

Its Mercedes Benz. They don't use designers, and haven't for about 20yrs. They use people who check what parts will fit.

Its all arse about face with MB, which is why their cars are so poor and fall way below expectations

I need to get an air freshener for the car and some crappy seat covers plus an ID badge with a photo on that looks nothing like me.

Don't forget to jet wash the mats and remove the airconditioning fuse when you put them back in the car...

I don't understand the logic behind this....When the cab is sold it will probably have near 300k miles on it...be totally knackered...
Un marked/worn seats are really going to help sell it/make it worth more.....not!

It's more about collecting the piss and puke

That said, the interior of every car I used as a taxi looked as new inside when done... even my 135k mile 2 year old Seat

Unless you have vinyl seat covers, that aint going to work....as it will just soak through.....

[Doctor Gollum]

The really cheap covers contain more plastic than a lego factory

I swear its those bloody passport machines or the fact the council still accept photos of me that are 6 or 7 years old....a good printer on photo paper works a treat!....

Jest in truer never word said a,

I actually had to give directions to a driver collecting a passenger from the North Terminal... I mean, ffs

Normally I am keen to be helpful, but two things stood out... firstly he was at the Shell garage the other side of the North Terminal entrance, (and was expecting the elderly couple to walk out to him)... secondly,  he had dropped them off two weeks earlier... at the North Terminal

Once again, DTM Taxis provided an excellent service, including food

However, his ID looked nothing like the driver (a really dodgy looking character), so I refused to pay, following recent advice on here

Mercedes do not come with decent anything as standard. If they could figure out a way of charging you extra for the air the engine ingested driving it off the delivery truck, they would. This has been SOP for German marques for decades.
