Mercedes-Benz E-Calss TV commercial

You must have watched that Mercedes-Benz commercial in which Michael Schumacher drives in a tunnel upside down, in nothing less than the SLS! That advert was all about speed. This one is at the absolute opposite end of the spectrum. This one is about braking.

It isn’t desperately funny or anything, neither does it bite back at the competition. This one’s a proper gentlemanly sort of a commercial. And it ends up promoting the braking technology quite aptly. I liked this Merc E Class advertisement, hope you do as well.

Honda to bring in the new Accord

Allow me to start with an apology for the quality of pictures. I couldn’t manage anything better with merely a camera phone whilst running behind the damn car to get a clear shot.

I was talking to a fellow motoring journalist recently about how Honda has been, sort of, pompous about its presence in the D segment with the Civic. Honestly, the Civic is no longer as appealing a product that it was till a couple of years ago. There are better cars in the segment. Even the bland – and it pains me to say this – Toyota Corolla is a damn side better than the Civic. The Skoda Laura is the best there, really. Today, I would buy a Skoda Laura over the Civic or the Corolla in a hearbeat. In fact, I did.

Review – Mercedes Benz M-Class (ML 320 CDI)

The moment it was fixed, I immediately decided that the first thing the Mercedes Benz ML 320 CDI will be subjected to is something called ‘girlfriend-approved’ test. You see, my lady – she detests whatever I love under the motoring umbrella. She likes cutesy hatchbacks like the Zen Estilo. Me? I hate it. From the bottom of my heart. To the core. Don’t, not even for a moment, think that I hate small cars. I love them. But the Zen Estilo? No thank you, I’m better off on a bunch of berries.
