Is A Mercedes The Best Present You Can Buy Your Mum?

Sons, the video footage you're about to watch - called How To Make Your Mom Cry - now means that we all need to up our game if we're to come close to matching the joy of this mother on her 70th birthday.

To surprise his mum, this chap told her that he wanted to meet at a local Mercedes dealership where he was getting his Audi R8 serviced - naturally, she didn't question this anomaly.

At the dealership he shows his mum the R8, then walks her over to a new Mercedes, which he says is his winter car. As she gets comfortable, she cheekily says "I want this one" and "this is my car", to which he replies "this is your car, Happy Birthday, mum." She immediately bursts into tears and is rendered speechless. What a way to make your mum's life that little bit nicer, right?
