Count yourself lucky - if you'd followed your new best friend's instructions you'd be walking like John Wayne, you'd have trouble sitting down for a week and no one would want to shake you by the hand.

In Finland the E60 is a quite common taxi. Especially diesel models.
Ok, where is the prestige? That's it, I'm trading mine in for an Italian Topolino car. I've never seen one of those used as a taxi.

Whats the big deal? In many parts of the world, the Mercedes S class is used as a taxi cab.

nothing really, they are ugly, they run on drums of gas,low emissions, tops out at 160kmh etc,
but have a rear legroom twice that of a MB S class, which is a big deal if you are a passenger, sorry abt that.
i have seen and been in a E class taxi but not an S Class, do they charge more, cos i haven't seen a Diesel one as yet???
