But how many of those ministers drive 1600cc Marc or the C180??? They usually go for the guzzler E class and God knows what else! Life is worth living cos God planned it to be so.

@ enigma you seem to be saying the 1.6L Merc does not exist,so let me bring you up to speed - read up on BLUE technology. Blue is the new Green technology for the auto industry where aerodynamics,fuel consumption,roll resistance,weight etc are improved without compromising the cars power/outputwith the following benefits: Energy savings Less CO2 emission Savings on tax/insurance etc Some of the manufuctureres who have adopted it are Peugeot - Blue Lion, VW - Blue Motion for (Where the Passat @sheep describes below falls) and Mercedes - BlueEFFICIENCY where the 1.6L (1597cc) C180 falls and was first launched at the 2008 Geneva Motorshow 'If you are not living on the edge,you are taking up too much space'

@enigma:Prior to the mid 90s Mercedes +BMW faithfully used the first 2 numbers (merc) or last two digits(BMW) to indicate engine capacity eg mercedes 230E was a 2300cc fuel injected engine. nowadays sometimes the digits correspond to the cc like the new E300 but sometimes not like the C180. BMW have been doing this since the E46 3series from 2002 the 318 has a 2000cc engine and not a 1800cc while the 320 has a 2000cc engine. JK
