[QUOTE="F10 CREW, post: 721910, member: 43055"] I am planning to get a second wife...as in I am now planning to buy the next family car that will be with me for the next 5 years or so. Shall be used as a transport for wife, 2 kids and a domestic helper. My average mileage a month is about 3000km. Due to the love of high torque and Bugatti Veyron is out of reach, after breaking the piggy bank, it's down to the final contenders. Either a 520d or a Merc E300 Bluetec Hybrid Diesel. I am sure most of you are already familiar with the 520d details and specs. Pricing for the 520d is RM354800 while the E300 is estimated about RM330k to RM360K. Delivery for the E300 starts in April 2015. Additional tech available on the E300 over the 520d are like Collision Prevention Assist, Rear Seat Entertainment System, Active Parking Assist, Paddle Shifters on Steering, 18 inch AMG wheels, DVD... just to name a few. Tech available on the 520d over the E300 are like 8 speed ZF gearbox, Comfort, normal, sport and sport + modes, I Touch system (Merc still the rotary dial). Also, its a proven diesel unit with people on this forum claiming it to be so. Looks wise, both have their own beauty. Home minister (aka the wife) claims that the E300 is better looking and more luxurious. Happy wife happy life?? From the many videos that I have watch online, driving dynamics I am sure the 520d will win hands down. Comfort on the other hand, I think it should be the E300. I am like torn between two lovers. Guys and perhaps any gals in this forum, please give me your valuable inputs on whom should I take on my second wife? A BMW 520d or a Mercedes E300 Bluetec Diesel Hybrid? Thanks in advance. Yours Faithfully. [/QUOTE]
