My Mercedes Tech Buddy Let Me Down Today
Called my close personal friend and ultimate Mercedes Tech Johnhef today to arrange a tune up for my Jaguar XJS12. He said to stick a rag in the gas tank and light it. I'm still very upset and can't stop crying.

oh come on folks, at least once in their life, everybody needs to own a V12. And I almost bought an XJS on that very idea. Just now I want an MB V12.

Man, my mechanic always offered to light my car on fire too. I would never let him do it unless he was inside!
