Why do you REALLY drive a Benz ?

We own a body shop and I went to pick up a customers Benz that was wrecked and drove it in. This was in the mid eighties, and the car was a big sedan,,, an S class not an E. Driving this wrecked car the few miles into the shop, I realized that even being wrecked, this car drove better than any car I had ever driven. Once we started tearing it apart, {this was the first major job we had ever done on a Benz} I became aware of the engineering that had gone into the panels and structure of the car. They still amaze me on every one we do. At that time I swore I would own a Benz one day. We,,, my wife and I,,, now own three, and I just love these cars. I consider myself very lucky to be able to experience the thrill of owning and driving a Benz.
