    New S-Class - Your Views? Photos Included

    Hi,

    I have spoken to a lot of people about the new s-class. Some people find the shape of the car really ugly others like it. I personally love the looks of the new S-Class. What do you think about it?

    I like it, but I wouldn't buy one. - I would spend the £100k on something sportier. Personal Choice at the end of the day.

    At first look I didn't think it was the ugly, or that beautiful.

    But looking at it for a little longer, i noticed some things I realyl don't like, such as the rear wheelarch, and the rear lights and boot. The rounded, bulbous boot really annoys me and reminds me of BMWs.

    I wouldn;t say it was ugly tho.

    Interior looks nice.

    It's a bit uglier than the old one, but that really was a handsome car. It might grow on me like the latest 7-series has- I quite like the look of them now especially in black.

    I would definitely buy one if I could afford one! It's always been one of the cars that I have to own before I kick the bucket.

    I love the rear 1/4 and the rear arches. It is.....lovely

    I'd be immensely proud to own one

    The one I saw was made of clay. It had fake axles and was surrounded by body guards. LOOKED real....just wasn't real. Amazing clay work, more impressive than Skii's model planes

    Talking about cars growing on you, my 5-Series Beemer has grown on me. Admittedly it is probably the ugliest car in the world (it's the new shape with the weird front headlights) but there is something beautiful about its ugliness.

    As much as the new 5 Series looks reasonable and will apparently grow on you, theyll never replace the older ones, which I much prefer. Family used to have one, absolutely brilliant on the long drives to France, soo comfortable. No slouch either.

    Oh and I wouldn't complain if someone wants to offer me a brand new S class either
