Do I get you sympathy vote,lol Only joking I intend to vote for a better car than mine,There are some minters there.

W201 Junky Posts: 2,538 Group: Members Member #1,576 Joined: August 5, 2007	maybe a daily driver only 190 of the month as a 1 off special, ie no projects, garaged or weekend motors, as i bet most of the cars above only get driven at weekends etc although i get the feeling they would be rougher looking than the usual lot

If it has tits or an engine it will be trouble Posts: 13,260 Group: Members Member #348 Joined: June 15, 2006	Matt B got my vote. Because it looks like it has just been delivered by Mercedes in that pic. Clean and untouched makes it stand out even more.

Mine won last month but it's by no means perfect in my eyes, it bears the small scratches and dints of everyday use, it's a shame that people can't use car parks without dragging their bags along the side or opening their car doors into it. Thank God for the miracle abilities of Auto Glym! Er, I'm not going to be stripped of the title now am I? :lol:
