Surprised you are not baffled by the fact it is the last of the old model, and not a smaller CLA with wicked infotainmentThat model of C class is probably one of the nicest looking saloon cars ever made, imo.
Until someone fits black wheels obviously

Couple of lovely C Class's there. The current gen coupe in particular is a such great shape. Side profile especially, in my eyes has such good proportions (other one is the E92 that is fab). Only downside is the fake exhaust tips on the new Mercs.

Just use a repeaterThink that will be my next daily.
Where do you leave the keys so I don’t need the boys to wake you
I did a double take too.
Looks cracking for what is essentially the base model(?)
Your full name is visible in one of the shots FYI, interior.

Cheers for the heads up
Edit: Yes sorry, base model (520i) just a "M Sport Edition" so it comes in Tanzanite Blue, has the different seats and a few other bits and bobs.

Ha, I would rather it just get taken than someone wake me up
The M Sport Edition is the top model - it is the trim level that sits above M Sport. In the UK, we have a choice of SE, M Sport and M Sport Edition.
It adds good things - like those really nice seats - and also bad things - like those wheels which quite literally have the words 'M Sport EDITION' written on the face
Generally though styling aside the G30 LCI is a wonderful thing.

The seats are one of my favourite parts, along with the colour.... Yeah the wheels
Luckily its written really small on them!I did worry the ride quality would be compromised(Due to 20" low profile) but so far, no complaints.
I disagree, if he doesn't do significant mileage the 520i is a more pleasant thing to drive, especially on short trips around town. A 4 cylinder diesel spoils a 5 Series, a 4 cylinder petrol does not.
I disagree. When I drive mine on petrol only the engine is coarse sounding not too dissimilar to a diesel, the power delivery is predominantly about low end torque just like a diesel, but the fuel consumption is appalling, a complete joke compared with a diesel.

Just didn’t want a diesel, my mileage has dropped, just wanted a nice comfy car to transport the family around
Previous car was a M140, didn’t make use of it properly so went for the sensible option.
Where is the white paint on the tyre ?!?What’s wrong with wheel writing
The same reason I got a G31 520d Touring from a Golf R Estate. I couldn’t use the R performance on my commute and so it was just like sitting in any other Golf.Just didn’t want a diesel, my mileage has dropped, just wanted a nice comfy car to transport the family around

The colour of your car looks awesome, as do the seats.
