    Tell me more. I need a new (secondhand) car and I don't want something that will burn out in 5 years time and I need something good to travel the highways. I like the idea of a Mercedes too! I could invade somewhere.

    That's something my mother in law would say. :lol:

    Parts aren't hard to find at all for older cars - granted if you buy something that was only released in limited numbers in Australia it may be trickier but still not impossible. Only some older cars require a fuel additive when run on 98. None of mine have ever required it.

    I agree that the 1L ecoboost is a cool engine, but it's the car it's supplied in - it simply doesn't work for me.
