If any one remembered i was selling my Galant 2.5 v 6 Sport last year/ begining this year

http://www.clubvr4.com/forum/showthread.php?t=19489

Finally gone, I wanted £2500 but in the end got £3200.
So good news all round.
Bad news is i am now driving a Merc C180 Kompressor Auto company car
Its like driving a Bed.
Sad the MIts went, but it was just sat in the garage covered up .

Only 2 years on the company car. so will be able to get back to a proper car
circa 2009 lol!!

Cheers

How does the Merc compare to the V6?

Good price BTW. Worth waiting for the right buyer.

The merc as a car is ok. its a 4 speed auto box,
the sport button just stiffens the suspension, and it revs higher.. but the car itself is very quiet, none of the "good" engine noise.

Just doesnt seem as fast even though merc "claim" top end is about the same.

Some good functins, the manual limiter is good, lots of average speed cameras near me, so i just set it to 1mph under the limit and sit there..
cruise control is a bit scarey at first.. was going to the airport 2 weeks after i got it at 4am and was sat in middle line doin ***ish , strange when you not actually "driving" car execpt steering.

Looks and styling and power Mits won hands down.
Merc more of a status symbol..

If i was spending £23k on a car.. the Merc would not be it.
