    A35

    Test driving an A35 on Saturday in Northampton; Sun Yellow, AMG Premium Plus equipment line, AMG Style package and AMG Advanced Navigation package. I think I'd add the adaptive damping (as I have on my C300) and pass on the navigation package, but we'll see...

    A35

    I was in Northampton yesterday getting my car serviced. Salesman said they had expected theirs on Tuesday, but they had changed the spec to include the aero pack (and everything else that goes with it) and now it is due in a couple of weeks. That grey with the aero pack really does look good!

    What's the C300 like?

    I have a C300 AMG Line Coupé, just coming up to 2 years old and approx 25000 miles. What Thrash says about the C200 applies equally to the C300, but I can also add that whilst it is, "fast enough for day to day driving" it can be a lot more, especially in Sport+! No problems with the car...

    UK number plates after March?

    There are already several different options available.

    A Class & HUD Option

    It appears you can only get the 19" AMG multi-spoke light-alloy wheels and the AMG Night package in conjunction with the AMG Aerodynamics package. Also, no 718 Cayman-style Dynamic Select knob and other buttons on the steering wheel.

    Anyone used Mercedes (Sytner) Milton Keynes bodyshop repair?

    Used them back in March after the third party dealt a glancing blow to my nearside front quarter as she came through a red light at a T-junction. Excellent work, quickly sorted by Sytner Drive. As has been said, probably not their body shop but I've got the Mercedes warranty.

    So tell me ...

    I'm 53 and my wife's 59. Her GLC takes the dog (GSD) or all the dive gear (2 dive boxes, 2 tanks, 2 dry suit bags plus food and drink for the day). No golf, ever. My C205 because GLC does everything else!

    Pairing a phone with Bluetooth

    Agreed. The new device has a different Bluetooth hardware address and this is what is used for the pairing.

    Sat Nav voice

    If you mute the output within the Sat Nav, rather than adjust the volume to zero, the Sat Nav doesn't "talk" and the music doesn't get affected. You will still get verbal alerts for traffic, diversions, etc.
