Not sure I would be guessing about 2015 to 2017 I would think.

I am assuming mileage not much of a bother with them based on my experience with the bigger E class ones?

But I don't even think I know anyone who has one.

Cheers 

Ian

 

i've not heard any thing bad about them , my niece has a petrol on a 17, personally id go for one with amg spec , better interior , wheels etc,

Morning all. Last day of my three-day extravaganza today... root extraction, tattoos and now new helmet. Hopefully just painful for the wallet this time around 

[Ian Frog]

Morning @learningtofly Hope the painful ones went well though.

Cheers

Thanks mate. It was only four hours in the chair teserday a;lthough i'd be lying if i said it din't hurt (a lot) from start to finish.

Having multiple tattoos requires that you conveniently forget the pain from previous experiences, because it's not pleasant!

Numbers 3 and 4, Geoff - will get my other half to take some pictures later as I did promise to post them here. As for the helmet, I'm going for the Shoei JO Hawker TC‑5. I think I'll need the inserts changing so I have two sizes put aside at Motolegends and am popping down there for a fitting this morning.

£120 - could have been worse.

That's not too bad for the UK as I understand it.

It probably would have been about €30-€40 here.

Yes, but they'd probably have tied it to the rear end of a horse.

The standard of dentistry seems pretty high here......lot of women dentists too.

Portugal and Spain have very high standards in all types of medicine, most of the time both countries are short in resources being Portugal behind on affordability.

When in Lisbon I used to have dental treatments at the local university and the service was really good, the downside was how long it would take.

Proof of Iberian quality is how easy is for practitioners to find a job anywhere they want.

Absolutely! I think a lot of Brits seem to think that it's somehow inferior because it's foreign......but the reality is quite the opposite.

Though I think that Portugal is way ahead of Spain in terms of education.........but that could be due to the mentality of the people here rather than the system itself.

Just to add that I really was joking then. There are lots of countries that rival the UK for quality of healthcare (Cuba being a very good example).

Except regular dental checks that are done in uk, everything more than that I go to Croatia. 10 times cheaper for top quality.
