    With our first baby arriving, I'm going to put the 500E for sale, with regret I must say. Making space to get my wife something 'practical'. Estate/SUV coming up.angry

    If anyone's interested in given the Benz a good home... wink

    Buddy - receiving a baby are excellent news, congratulations!!! SmileySmileySmileySmileySmileySmiley

    letting that 500E go- are very sad news! But maybe Marie wants to buy it Smiley

    BTW... check the Volvo XC90 great family car Smiley

    Congurtulations for the Baby Frank. SmileySmiley

    I had a quick test drive with a Volvo XC90 D5. I didn't like how the car drives, steering wheel feel and the air suspension which is soft for body control but stiff for the road imperfections. It was my favorite 7 seater but the test drive make it let it go.

    Then I had another test drive with a Q7 2.0 TFSI which also had airmatic and 20" wheels. It drives like a "car"; like it much better including interior quality. So I would also suggest you to check Q7.

    Interesting to read my friend. 

    I loved especially that steering feel. Car feels so short. The airmatic - well, my test T8 had 22" rims and it was just perfect. Nicely, sporty firm. Smiley

    I know, wish I could keep everything and I'm sure I'll regret this one but I'll have to sacrifice it for a decent DD for my wife. SmileySmiley

    Then again it'll mostly likely be an Alpina B3, there are worse things in life.

    I understand and follow your reasoning's. I just learned to overthink to let things go which I can't buy anymore. Any new car can go in an instant, but i.e. my 356 I would never let go as it is way to difficult to get one again. 

    Yep - B3 is awesome. Since Friday I have my C43 - awesome car. I have the DTE upgrade installed, (441 HP). Car performs very strong and is able to do the complete spread between comfort and fun. You might want to have a look towards this, too! Smiley

    no - DTE.

    Reason to choose was the included Certificate of Conformity "Teilegutachten" which was included. As you know, out of insurance and legal issues it needs to be accepted by the TUV, so I better made sure to have an conform tuning kit. The effect of the tuning kit is tremendous. Nevertheless I hope the engine is strong enough, but as I'm not a full throttle junky it should be ok Smiley
