The life of a 560 SEL / Das Leben von einem 560 SEL

The main purpose of this website is not to explain every single detail of a 560SEL, but rather to just give you the idea of what it is like to live day to day with the best thing to roll out of Sindelfingen. I will list the maintenance that is performed, the adventures I have and everything in between.

Mit dieser Website kannst du alles über meinen Erfahrungen mit meiner S-klasse. Ich schreibe von Unterhalt, Plege, Abenteuer und alles dazwischen.

The 560SEL vs The Hybrid Part 1

I've never been convinced by hybrids. While under ideal conditions, they can be rather efficient and positive for the environment. For a taxi they can be a good choice in stop and go traffic getting the most out of their batteries. For a driver like myself, few things could be worse for the environment. Over the next little while I'll be writing about how terrible the Toyota Prius can be.

This video clip from the BBC's Top Gear sums up just what is wrong with hybrids.
