Filmed late 2010 while driving through the Dutch city of Nijmegen on a cold afternoon.

As Nijmegen was damaged quite heavily during the second world war (aerial bombardment and heavy fighting in 1944) damaged buildings have been replaced by more modern structures.This road ends at the "Keizer Karelplein" that is a big roundabout in the city center, functioning as a...

Video Update: Mercedes Benz C200 CDI Estate
The Mercedes Benz C-class Estate (otherwise known as the "T-Modell") has been on sale since December 2007. In the videos below a C200 CDI Estate MY2010 is depicted in the most raw form it can get, with the standard trim (previously known as "Classic") and with just an APS50 Satnav system and Parktronic parking assist. Still, in Germany Mercedes Benz charges around €40.000 for this car.Is it worth it? I do not think so and would probably buy a young used car (6 to 12 months old) with a few more options added to it.In the first video,...
