Quite obviously i very much disagree with you, MB isn’t a scheme for you to get your dream car cheaper. It’s to cover necessities. We can argue if the scheme does that currently, i don’t think it does – but i also very much don’t think that we need 100 grand plus cars on the scheme.
If you fancy one of those, walk into the next dealership and order it non-VAT exempt.
