Just fly & rent-a-car the other end....alot cheaper...eh?
Even if your car does 15 kms/Litre the return trip burns over $400 of diesel +wear/tear + to drive that far you need 2 x stop-overs ....+ the trip that length is as boring as batshit!
Just get a return flight deal...eh?
But of course the topic is the high rate of depreciation on luxury ICE cars particularly MB.
I remember walking into a MB showroom in the 80s and the salesman mentioned "investment" at least half a dozen times. Nowadays the "I" word is not mentioned... a qualifying "do you have an ABN, sir " ?
