In fairness I've not seen the current one - the last one I saw was at the end of the model above. The new one looks really nice from the pictures actually

As I said, its difficult to describe, but I just think it's uneccesary, makes it look cluttered, borderline patronising.

iaind entered a competition to win a car a few weeks ago.

To his amazement he won a AMG CL63! :cool:

When it turned up on his driveway he was furious to learn that it had ACCEL / DECEL on some of the controls on the steering wheel. There was even UP and DOWN written on the buttons for changing gear! :eek:

How dare they insult me by providing a car with such wording on the buttons, he thought. How dare they!! :mad:

So in his fury, he complained to the MD of Mercedes-Benz and insisted that he wouldn't drive the car until they had removed the offending wording.

Unsurprisingly, there wasn't a response from Mercedes-Benz and the car remained outside his driveway for many months without being driven.... :(

iaind was very cross during those many months but refused to give in to being patronised in such a way. iaind's mother, seeing his misery, tried to sooth him and but he would not be moved :( She racked her brain for many months but eventually came to a solution!

The End.
