Say u entered in gumball 3000 and u have to cover 4828km in 1 week.
Which car whould you be happiest to cover all that distance with.
I whould go for the sedan its luxurious fast and keeps a low profile.

The CLS V12 Rocket is a perfect vehicle for this trip.

It's hard for me to vote against the CGT in any poll, but
you'd have to be crazy to travel that much distance in
anything other than the CLS!

P.S. I think it would be crazy to travel that far in a CLS
2, but it's the best of alot of bad choses

I think the Veyron would be comfortable enough to travel that distance.

I'd easily take the Veyron. After watching top gear with Jeremy driving the Veyron from Italy to London...this is such an easy choice.

Yup. Same here. Tha CLS Rocket will surely experience technical difficulties during such a long trip. The Veyron won't.

I wouldn't necessarily think so, Brabus has a good reputation with reliability... The Gumball has been won by a Brabus driver at least a couple of times. That said, the Veyron is an excellent choice. (But I voted for the CLS

)

I would take a Mercedes S 420 CDI (lwb)!

It is comfortable, fast and has enough space for two or three people!!
