Derek I need house prices right away.

Looked at your photos and my jaw fell open, 65 KM average WOW. Some days I don't even peak at that speed, unless I floor the car between lights.
Have you calculated actual L per 100 KM using actual fuel?? My long term shows only > 2% difference which is very accurate.

I would be very wary about posting your consumption on a German site. The Mercedes police might come at night and re tune your car.

The one feature I have come to hate on the car is the Average speed readout, it makes me feel old and slow. But our government has just announced a 14 Billion $$$ plan for more transit,,I'm hoping it will get people off the road and give me more space. I wish they had a smiley of a car with flames coming from the back!!
