Wow keeping up with the Joneses seeing how many white German whips can fit on one driveway :D
It’s only over the last few winters and this year especially when our roads often resemble Eastern Europe for dirtying cars I’ve thought to myself what a ridiculous colour choice white is. It looks absolutely disgusting when dirty which in the Uk it will be all the time outside of our 3 months of summer. You can see all the dirt stuck between panel gaps which often looks like rust from far away it’s far worse than any other colour for looking minging the majority of the time.
On a side not seen some stats the other day on the news saying Black is still the biggest selling colour by far :eek: i would have thought white has overtaken it but obviously not.
 
We have 3 German whips (and 1 American/English/Belgian?)
Beat that

(Unfortunately no 4 pot diesels or white :( )
 
Most European Fords are designed in Germany, and a good number of the engines are developed/produced at Dagenham, but ultimately Ford have a number of plants for both the car and engine, so could be Cologne or the plant in Belgium. Definitely not American though, like most Fords we've seen on this side of the pond since WWII.
 
New family car/daily driver came last week. It's the GLC43, so a 'warm' version of the GLC but not quite full-on AMG like the 63.
Really enjoying it so far, seems much better screwed together than the LR Discovery Sport it has replaced. The Burmester stereo is very impressive - possibly one of the best I've heard of a car like this. Looking forward to trying some of the adaptive cruise features and getting my foot down properly once it's run in. :D

I know a lot of people don't like the C class interior with the stick on Ipad but it is much better in person than it comes across in pictures perhaps? Either way, it wasn't a deal breaker for me. Went for the carbon fibre interior trim to replace the piano black. It's still quite shiny, so will unfortunately still show finger prints but I thought it was a nice touch.
