Apparently this was inspired by a misadventure one of our group member went through: http://www.benzworld.org/forums/w126-s-se-sec-sel-sd/1744242-alabbasi.html#post6091682

I was told back in the 70's (from Mercedes mechanics)when I purchased my first M/B  W115 220D,
That reason they lost the war was that they never put grease fittings on the ball joints of their equipment.

Another funny video by the same creator.  This time he mocks the new CLA:

That is a riot, this guy really knows how to write.  I laughed out loud to the CLA AMG line.
Thanks!

I really hope that last one is faked.  I've never been one to even laugh at people doing stupid things and hurting themselves.  In addition, I think practical jokes are cruel.

PS:  The first two are hilarious.  What movie was the video part exerpted from?
