New Mercedes destroyed with golf club

Matt Greenop · 0 comments

A man parked his new Mercedes-Benz S 63 AMG in front of a Korean dealership, and then smashed it up with a golf club.

Yu Je-Ha said the car was faulty, and wanted an exchange or refund, claiming the S63’s engine had cut out there times while driving, reported Yonhap news agency.

The Mercedes-Benz dealer had checked the car several times, and found no fault.

Yu not surprisingly got the attention of authorities, who have now asked Mercedes to supply diagnostic data.

Taking a high-end Mercedes to the golf club is not that unusual – but we’ve never heard of it the other way around.

Hopefully the grumpy customer had made sure it wasn’t the car’s stop/start system causing the ‘fault.’
