Slipping into a new mercedes is relatively simple with some great affordable finance, however if you fancy seeing what it’s like to own one you could consider hiring a mercedes from the fleet at Xtreme Car Rentals.  It’s a great way of getting to know what it’s like to live with a luxury SUV as most dealerships will only let you test drive for a few hours.


There are, of course, other brilliant european SUV’s on the market.  Including the BMW X3 and the Audi Q7.  But we think the Mercedes is that little bit more indulgent.  Whilst it may seem strange opting for a european brand over our incredible ranges, the EU has strict emissions policies which could make your life a little bit greener.  So it’s worth checking things out and learning from our neighbours across the pond.
