W hat can a poor mortal do? From the moment you lay your eyes on her, she asks for it - and gives you such a high that you go craving to give her some more. If the C-class saloon is the Julia Roberts (pretty, charming, sweet) of Hollywood, then the Sports Coupe is the Angelina Jolie (outrageous, provocative, sexy), says Yogendra Pratap after his week-long fling with the beauty.

Any takers for guessing the company with the largest number of models on Indian roads? You should be forgiven if you come up with Maruti Udyog Ltd. For, believe it or not, DaimlerChrysler India will soon be putting its ninth different car up for sale in its showrooms in India. And no, here I am definitely not talking about cars of the same model range with even a totally different engine, but of entirely different model ranges altogether. A couple of years back who would have thought that the company having the largest number of variants on Indian roads would be DaimlerChrysler and all its cars would be badged Mercedes-Benz?

But things did take a turn for the good for the then Mercedes-Benz India Ltd, as well as for us motoring journos and the auto loving public of the country; the company's fortunes did a quick turnaround and the company adopted a very proactive approach, launching model after model, either by assembling them in India or through the CBU route and has today the largest number of models either on the roads of India or undergoing homologation with the concerned authorities (read ARAI).

This is also the ninth road test of a Merc by OVERDRIVE and the one I have enjoyed the most. Read on to find out why this car has meant more fun than even the E or the S-class cars, which we raved on ad infinitum.
