| Many thanks, good reply which echoes my own feelings. I think he's looking at a daily driver for personal use to and from work and customer sites and would have another people carrier style car for his wife & kids. Therefore a higher mileage for the SL. He wants something prestigious and nice to drive - after all he could always get a diesel Golf and reap the rewards of low running costs, but that's not what he wants.
Despite which, I still feel it's pointless because
1. You have to change the tyres to run-flats
2. It probably won't fit in the spare tyre space due to the location of the hydraulic pump as you say
3. Eight injectors equals much money
4. Who else would want to buy one when he comes to sell it unless it's at a big discount therefore is he actually saving money?
5. It's just wrong....! |
