Testing times:- Car Versus Train


Like so many cars we sell, the black E250 coupe had been bought by a guy who saw it on the Internet, and who lived miles away from the dealership, and like the grinning fool I am I volunteered to deliver it. I might as well be paid for a day driving rather than doing all the other sales-related crap that dominates my every waking hour.

It was a nice enough car, but this isn’t a review of the Mercedes, this is a review of the journey. Car one way, train the other, exploring the relative benefits of each.
