Hi, my name is Erik, and I am a petrol head. I suffer from an addiction called NCSD, (New Car Smell Disorder)

For he 22 years I have a drivers license, I owned 17 different daily drivers... Every time when I go out to shop for a new vehicle I promise myself to be a wise man, to not get hit by the depreciation brick, and keep the vehicle for at least 5 (!) years. To seal this promise, for the first time in my life I bought myself the extended warranty on the last purchase. This is commitment!

And last week it happened again, I thought I was out, but I got pulled back in.... the dealership....I had some time to kill and walked in the Mercedes dealership, and there she was, smiling at me, sedating me with here new car smell...this beautiful car...

So...there is nothing to do but to give in and enjoy the ride! After a record braking 17 months I will say goodbye to the BMW X5 2010 diesel and explore what's out there . I am debating on making a decision from following fine automobiles.

Mercedes E350 4 matic Station/touring.
Mercedes ML 350 Bluetec
Audi A4 Avant S-line 2.0
Audi Q5 S-line

or......there is this amazing C63 AMG.....the sound that thing makes is just awesome!! But....I need 4 wheel drive, and this will be drivable for 9 months or so, leaving me driving the Pickup truck in the winter time.

Any therapeutic advice is appreciated!

Merry Christmas to you all!
