The lucky bastards in Europe are at it again.  They have better food, they have the Autobahn, and now they have a 2 year warranty with no mileage limit on any new Mercedes passenger car or van.

The warranty applies to any car or van purchased from September 1 and on, so all you European speed-demons can drive 'til your heart's content (at least for the first two years).

Oh if I could drive the McLaren SLR on the Autobahn just one time...

Mercedes-Benz Offers Two-Year Warranty For Passenger Cars And Vans Throughout Europe

Stuttgart, Sep 09, 2005

DaimlerChrysler is introducing a two-year warranty for new passenger cars and vans throughout Europe, effective retroactively from September 1, 2005. The warranty is issued by the respective national subsidiary and is valid from the day the vehicle is delivered or when the automobile is first registered (the earlier of the two dates applies). The warranty is valid in all member states of the European Union as well as in Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway and Switzerland.

In line with the company’s warranty terms and conditions, the new regulation is not subject to a mileage limit, thus providing Mercedes-Benz customers with even more security. The guaranteed services apply to privately and commercially utilized vehicles from Mercedes-Benz.

The new two-year warranty augments the existing Mercedes-Benz warranties: MobiloLife for passenger cars and MobilityGo for Mercedes-Benz vans.
