Well it's time the Xfire is going and an SLK350 is due in a week or so, no regrets with the Xfire never owned a car that got so many looks and so many people coming to ask what it was. But in recent months that has died away and with 38k miles on the clock its wearing its age badly.

So time to trade up to the modern version on the Merc platform with rack and pinion steering and the new 2.5 V6 engine.

It's been fun.
