Mercedes or BMW?

That is the dilemma that I find myself in. I want a new car to go with my new job as a sales consultant in a car marketing company. However, I cannot decide whether or not to buy a used BMW or a used Mercedes!

The fact of the matter is that I do need a new vehicle as my new job involves a lot of client meetings and there will also be the possibility of me having to transport certain people outside of the company to functions and seminars. Therefore, I need a car that will not only deal with my requirements of speed, looks and venom but also for my clientele where it needs to appear professional and business-like. I have looked at both sets of cars BMW and Mercedes.

There were many different styles available but unfortunately I could not quite make a decision and make a purchase. My monthly car allowance does not allocate enough budgets to buy new and so instead the majority of my efforts have been in the used car section of both sets of dealers. The six series by BMW impressed me the most initially but then I saw the CLK by Mercedes and felt torn between the two sets of cars. Business-wise I am sure that Mercedes will be more suited but personally speaking I think that they are for the older generation of mature males – not the young and ready like myself! However, business comes first as they say and so the used Mercedes CLK looks as though it is going to get my reluctant vote. The other thing being that I was adamantly told to buy a car that had five doors as it is more professional and allows for easy access to passengers.

I have never had a five door car in my life! On this topic though I do understand why this is required and I would have been more than happy to abide had I been able to purchase an Audi instead. So tomorrow I am off to pay a visit to the local Mercedes used car dealer to sign the agreement for my new motor. I can’t wait!
