Very interesting three vehicles. My attention, of course, is drawn to the Merc! What engine has it got? The plate implies it's a 500, but maybe you're bigging up your 320! Or making your 600 more unsuspecting!

@ Prodigy; Love the ZS, I always preferred the facelift as the grill looks less stuck on, always fancied one with the full 180 body kit, the gills in the front wings look great, there is a diesel saloon around here with the full kit and flash colour change paintwork, looks great
Thanks Si. I would have prefered the saloon to be honest, but this one came up and for its price it was too good to turn down... £2,500 in 2008 with 30k on the clock! I love all the flash colour change paintwork. Favourite is 'Typhoon' colour.
BTW, is that ZT in your avatar yours?
Unfortunately not, the avatar pic is of a full body kitted V8 ZT385, mine was a ZT120 in Trophy blue, Your ZS sounds like a bargin, a no brainer purchase, sad to hear about coolant loss probs, surely its better value to repair it than to replace it? I agree that Japanese is the way to go for reliability but you'll struggle to find something to match the fun factor and styling of your Zed, unless you go polar opposite like I have and get something run of the mill.

Thanks. It's a 500.

Exaclty - it has the suspension from the M-sport but not the stupid 19" wheels.

Crikey! That must be fun! 0-60mph in 5.9 seconds in the Coupe. Nice car!
Is it an SE?
Correct.
The SE is probably the best way to go if you want loads of kit but not the crashy ride of the M Sport.

Nice 3-Series Coupe. I had a 320d M Sport Coupe a couple of years back as a company car - loved it.
What engine's yours got?
It's a 335d
