This marks the first time that SAPTCO - the country's largest bus operator - has opted for the Travego model, although half of the company's 2,500 vehicle fleet already bear Mercedes' three-pointed star.

I probably shouldn't be telling you this (seeing as how I'll be attempting to procure one for myself), but if you're in the market for a new 2010 Mercedes GLK350, American Express will be giving away three of the new SUV's tomorrow via their My Wishlist contest.

In Mercedes tuning news, MEC Design has just unveiled a new bodykit for the W216 Mercedes-Benz CL-Class.

I just figured if there was one, this is probably what it would look like. For curiosity's sake, I then went to the Toys "R" Us website, and lo-and-behold...

As you'd expect from a wide body kit, the main highlights include new front and rear aprons, widened fenders in both the front and back, new side skirts, a roof and trunk spoiler and a new vented hood. Another notable change is the presence of the always popular 20-inch wheels with performance tires, while a new stainless exhaust system completes Vitt's CL package.

New spy photos have emerged showcasing the next-generation Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class undergoing a bit of fair weather testing. Unfortunately, the four door coupe is heavily masked with plenty of false panelling, so distinguishing its various design elements is still an impossible task. Parts of the front grille, headlights and tail lights, are however, a little more clear than they've been in the past, revealing a few subtle hints about what lies in store for the model.

While going through our inbox this early afternoon, we received an email from an astute reader by the name of Ken directing us to a recent review conducted by Jeremy Clarkson that provides another look as to what to expect from the newly-introduced Mercedes E63 AMG.

If you're one of the first to get your hands on the new 2010 Mercedes-Benz E-Class and are now contemplating how best to tune your new model, you'll soon have another option to consider. Japanese tuning firm Wald has unveiled the first glimpse of their styling package for the new E, and as you can see above, it looks to provide a significantly more aggressive appearance to the sedan (judging from the front at least).
