Would agree based on a 405 I had many years ago. However

I looked Mercs, CIA's, Volvo's etc and for quality, tech and vfm I've settled on a Pug 3008. It should be arriving next week.
Yes it's fingers crossed on reliability but TBF every brand can have some problems. I think there is a bit of mythology about the Germans. It's under warranty anyway.
