That’s exactly what I did recently at the launch of the Mercedes-Benz CLE Cabriolet. The drive is unmistakably Mercedes. Stylish good looks, a plush, luxury interior and the sound from the Burmester speaker system was just apt for the drive.

Leading the sales charge was the venerable Suzuki Swift with 1 179 units sold — 985 of which were the fourth-generation variant. Now that is saying something! I had the opportunity to test drive the fourth generation Swift in Cape Town recently and I just liked everything about the Swift. ALSO READ | Business or pleasure?
