Thank you!

I do appreciate the technology on this car, and the 360-degree parking feature is very useful!

Where have you been? I've noticed your absence!

Oh, I've been around. I did go to Napa and Maui for a few weeks, that was nice. I had the Armada in Napa.

Some awful drive-past scenes. Took them with my Samsung Galaxy S8 mounted on a DJI Osmo 2 Gimball on a tripod.

What the A-Class started out as and what it is now! What a difference!

Fucking looks really nice.  I would like to visit it.  (Actually Burghausen looks nicer than Fucking, but that spoils the whole play on words.) The car looks sweet too, Chris.  I hope you're having lots of fun with it.  I hope to see some proof of that fun soon.

Those lumps of cement look to be a real hazard for the unwary driver.

When you come here let me know! We can go to Fucking together. 


And yep, I am having so much fun! Look how fast I am driving! 













Joking aside, the car is a lot of fun. It's not as engaging as the BMW, and definitely not as fun from a pure driving perspective, but it is still enjoyable to drive. That engine is a gem. I kid you not it feels like a 6-cylinder - so refined and smooth, and no turbo-lag!

I'm more worried about the cobblestone road. It's like unnecessary abuse for the suspension. 

I've always wondered why they can't cover these cobblestone roads with a type of see-through gel-foam-like substance.

Good to see Russell enjoying the ride.

He loves it. He's my little "Guard Wombat"!

When the snow covers the forward-facing radar and prevents it from functioning, this little warning pops up!

For those who aren't linguists, "verschmutzt" is German for "f*ked"

It actually means "dirty" and in this case often refers to "dirt covering something."

[r0tor]

We just say it's got some schmutz on it

"besmirched" although its a rarely used word.

Beschmiert 

Indeed! I have not heard that word in ages, and I live in this country where that language is spoken!

Some pics of "Priscilla" with her 19" AMG Multispoke LMR wheels! God damn.
