Hi guys,

Sorry I have been a bit quiet recently but as you know I have got married. The threat to the Honda does not come from the wife however, she loves it (even better she loves FAST driving......:w00tSmile its from my sister.

My sister got rid of her plastic Mini Cooper (thank goodness!) and the plan was that she would have the Honda S2000 to drive to work and I could use it at weekends and evenings. We agreed a price or basically half price and she seemed happy. Unfortunetly she has now thrown a spanner in the works by saying she doesn't now want the S2000 because she has seen some little Mercedes.

She has taken a liking to the Mercedes C-Class Coupes like this:

:thumbdown: I THINK THEY ARE HORRIBLE!! :thumbdown:

Personally I am not exactly a big fan of Mercedes anyway and I find the coupe thing she likes horrible and out of proportion. If she gets it, then I'll have to get rid of the Honda because driveway space will be limited and she is refusing to pay her half towards the car.

How can I convince her the Merc is POO and the Honda is ACE ?? (Shouldn't be too hard really should it?) :lol:

Or take her for a spin in it. Smile

Even better. Drive around for endless hours trying to find a c-class. Then race it Smile

Those mercedes were pants when they were new and they are getting on a bit. None of the engines match the performance of the honda either! However somepeople don't like to rev the nuts off their cars.

Was Supercharged Racing Green IS200 Sport. Now APR Stage 1 Seat Leon Cupra (220 Bhp).

totally worn out and broken, shouting 'Holy ****, WHAT A RIDE!'"

I like Mercs but have always hated the c class coupe, it was horrible when it came out and still is!

What exactly does she like about it? At least if it was an SLK it would kinda make sense but that makes no sense when up against the S2000!
