Being that I don't have kids or large boxes to cart around I've never had any need for a wagon. But I've always said if I ever needed one the 5 wagon is one of very few that I think actually look nice

Very nice car, love the interior (beige + black trim, was one of my choices also but finally went black/black). More pics please

Big smile on you and your dad's face when you're driving it I presume ?

Are those the stock rims ? Does that mean standard 16" ?

In belgium the standard 16" rims are :

those are the standard rims in germany aswell^^^ but those are the winter tires with plastic hubcaps(?).

my dad wasn't really happy that all he was able to choose was a BMW and he had to give away his E class
but time will show if the Bimmer can match the Merc or not. So far he likes the reduced noise level. Power
should be about the same. He is also not getting along with his nav very well, because it is showing too
few information!

Plus: if he really wants to drive a Merc he could just ask my mom, my bro or me! or take his own SLK!

Congrats on the new ride and Wilkommen im Forum!

Sounds to me like he opted for the Basic and Business pack options that is offered to Major Customers (Gro?kunden) -- sounds very similar to the options I took!

Enjoy the new ride...
