Why waste so much money on old school?

I'm yet to figure out the rationale behind it.

To you it's a waste of money but to him,it is not. Some people prefer having one or more old school in their Garage.

Do you call moving from an E-class to a C-class an upgrade?
Re: Mercedes Benz Thread by Nobody: 12:56pm On Jun 15, 2015
That Mercedes Benz 200 still commands respect any day any time cos it's a classic and it would still beat our new fancy cars of today hands down. Those German engineers knew what they were doing when they built this car and the Chinese didn't call this car a German mistake for nothing cos d whole sheet metal work on dat car can build 10 Chinese vehicles without stress. Dent this car by mistake and watch how ur car would look like a crumpled piece of beer can.

Yes, if you consider the model years in this particular case

Then stating the model years will have made it clearer.
