Size counts. Mainly as status. It's just a fact of our human make-up and you can knock it but tough! The Chinese are particularly partial to this size matters ethos and Mercedes certainly seems to understand the ratio of size to status better than anyone being the status business for a Century. What I do justify though is knocking size when it doesn't actually come with a bit of space and older Jaguars (XJS, XK8 and even the old XJ6) were absolutely pathetic for their size... better now though. But don't worry JL123, this beautiful design theme is almost certainly going to be downsized in a size for you with the SLK version. Can't wait
