A couple of years ago, I was in the market for a cheap second hand,large, comfortable saloon to put big miles on (I'm a sales rep)

I bought a 2009 Volvo S80 D5 Geartronic Executive for €9000!!!!

That's a lot of luxury for €9000.

It is as plush a place to sit as almost any car I have been in and I have a few mates in the motor trade, so have been in a lot of plush cars.

It would have to be at least a very well specced E Class to get me out of my Volvo and into a Merc.

The Dynaudio system alone is worth it's weight in Gold (just an expression), air conditioned/message seats, it has a fridge and I've just recently found out that the engine mounts are hooked up to the vacuum system.

A Mondeo it aint !!!!!
