Do you have a car?
Nissan Navara 2006 [emoji23]

I miss my mazda 626 , this thing is so slow to drive.

I am planning on getting an MX5 later though. Just need to save up.

626 is the best car. They drive and handle like a dream.

But I am sure the mx5 is much better.
I just want a mark 1 or 2 mx5 though so they're not even that expensive now.

ahahaha I'm sorry but that is kinda cute but really ugly at the same time lol....
As long as the car can put a smile on my face I don't care how it looks or how fast it is. It just needs to be fun

When you drive, make sure to drive manual transmission for maximum fun

Ended up ordering another C250d since I actually really enjoyed the last one. I know it's same engine but w205 does look fantastic, and there's no waiting list so it'll be ready for delivery a day after I land back in Sydney later this year. The GLC250 was nice but had 8 month wait, and the coupe just wasn't practical especially if we want kids in the future... so given the w205 isn't the newest car, there was quite a bit of bargaining to be head with optioning it up :)
Im about to invest in the c300 for my wife and I. PM me and let me now how you go with the C250d. Thanks.

Will update you once I pick up the car tomorrow. C300 for sedan or coupe? The sedan C300 is the diesel hybrid which one of my friends has and overall the performance benefit is marginal and not necessarily worth the premium over the C250d. If it's the coupe C300 where it's a higher tune of the 2L petrol engine, then that is quite a good choice and if a coupe would suit my lifestyle (or anticipated lifestyle) then I would've done that for sure.
