Paul, I agree with you here la.

Really, the people nowdays keep doing stupid things like this.

They trust a sat nav over their own human judgement! Nonsense man!

Ahahaa, so you’ve got the money, you got a nice car with a good powerful engine, electronics and state of the art sat-nav, but you haven’t got brains. Keep your hands off the steering please :p

What a total waste done by the mindless rich people! For that amount of money, I can buy a semi-D luxury bungalow or penthouse here… or if donated to a charity, that will be very meaningful.

oh that’s too bad…

Paul… does that proves that SL500 has poor and unreliable satellite navigation system??? or just a misfunction from that woman’s car?

Although for them 96,000 pound sterling is pound for them, it is still expensive for them because of them having to spend a lot more on living expenses and especially taxes with the car example parking and emissions tax which is based on displacement and exhaust emissions.

Repair costs and maintenance are also quite high over there, so either way if 96,000 pounds is only as cheap or as expensive as they would like to think it is.

The Pagani Zonda may be 450,000 pounds for them but not many ppl own them. So it doesnt really mean that if they only pay 450,000 pounds it would necessarily be cheap.

The woman is rich because insurance on an SL500 will cost a bomb. The woman is rich because she could trash the SL500 and not blink an eye. The woman is rich because she had a chauffered Bentley to pick her up after she trashed the SL500.

She’s rich lah, let’s not argue about that

actually she is not rich. 96,000 pound sterling as UK People earn money in UK. Would u call a person driving a RM96,000 car rich then?

Money can’t buy intelligence so you wonder how they got so much of money in the first place.

Shows not to put too much dependency on sat nav devices than on your own senses such as instinct and sight. Probably should have paid more attention to her surroundings and not the sat nav map.

Paul, Isnt the SL500’s horsepower output 388hp and not 302hp? 302hp seems a bit little for an SL500. Just did a check at a Mercedes website for the 388hp figure.

Satellite Navigation System is a cool feature in most cars these days! But one has to open their eyes to actually see where they’re going!! A good laugh!

Guess we really can’t fully trust on those Satellite Navigation Systems, can we?

On the other hand, either she’s really blind or she’s definitely too naive to totally IGNORE that Big Road sign.

She probably couldn’t care less about her 96K pounds car since she has a chauffeur-driven Bentley waiting for her.
