Would you spend $10k on a used Mercedes diesel in great condition (but not show condition) for a daily driver? Sounds like you wouldn't, that is 5x more than you spent on your daughters daily driver!

I am waiting for some people to join the discussion that drive $40-$90k cars as daily drivers. =P

@Oldwolf - You are satisfied then with a sub $10k daily driver? Would $10k+ for a daily be worth it to you?
I would not spend that much on any Benz on principle {I am very frugal]
We did pay $17k for the used Jetta TDI that is wifeys DD, but thats a whole nother thing.
