    Service Plan and personalised registration number query

    I believe it is the norm, when I purchased a pre-registered C Class a few year back they always referred to its original plate until I asked my dealer change the registration to my private plate.

    Mercedes Warranty Quote

    Both my Brother (also has a C300d) and my Dad currently have extended warranties on their Cars and have no complaints with it. The only thing I would advise is to look closely at what is covered and what isn't because it isn't a like for like replacement of the Manufacturer's Warranty and is...

    Mercedes Warranty Quote

    Yes, normally a letter is sent out to the registered keeper with a pin number and login on it. You need both of those to go through the quotation process. As it expires in January I'd expect a letter in December sometime, from experience I've usually received such letters a month before the...

    after market ambient lighting?

    Apologies, I've probably taken your comment out of context which is easy to do. I did see his comment about not having it, but when he responded with his VIN I assumed he still wanted it checking for definite answer. At least if anyone else reads this thread with a similar question, they now...

    after market ambient lighting?

    He thought he didn't have it because he couldn't find the option. I've just confirmed it.

    after market ambient lighting?

    Just had a look at your VIN, you are missing the following option which is present on my car. 877 - Ambient Lighting So It looks like you don't have ambient lighting.

    after market ambient lighting?

    On the A35s I believe the only items that were removed as part of the Chip Shortage (depending on vehicle spec) were Burmester Surround Sound, Electric Front Seats (Memory Package), Heads up Display and Augmented Navigation. My car is a Premium Plus and was built in May 2022, it has the electric...

    after market ambient lighting?

    As someone above has already pointed out, ambient lighting comes as standard as part of the Premium Package, if you don't have the Premium Package then you won't have ambient lighting. I believe this is the case for all A Class vehicles which includes the AMG variants. As above, if you post your...

    A Class costing £85,000?

    Someone got their pricing wrong, as you've said an A45 S which is the most expensive in the range is upwards of 55K depending on the spec. Did the prize not include other items which brings the total prize pot to £85,000?

    cash or finance? how did you finance yours?

    I agree, I think the because of the older methods of finance such as the TV and furniture rentals where the less well off lived week to week on credit borrowing practically everything , there is an assumption that when someone takes out a finance agreement against a car they are in a similar...

    cash or finance? how did you finance yours?

    No horse flogging or criticism intended from my end, just an exchange of opinions :). All I will say is that when it boils down to financing something, whether that be a car or something else, there is no right or wrong way. Everyone's circumstances are different and we all do what is right for...

    cash or finance? how did you finance yours?

    If someone lives in a house and decides to move into a new house before they've fully paid off their mortage, then technically they've never owned the first house. The only thing that is theirs is the equity they've built up after the balance of the mortgage is settled when the house is sold...

    cash or finance? how did you finance yours?

    Exactly this, the assumption that you are stretching yourself because you pay monthly for a vehicle is mind boggling. I used to buy outright on both new and used cars, but as I started changing cars every 2-3 years I didn't see the point of putting a huge chunk of cash into an asset that...

    What are the requirements for getting a car loan or lease?

    Also this is in the wrong section (should be under finance/insurance). Please read the forum rules before posting.

    What are the requirements for getting a car loan or lease?

    That is a very broad question, are you in the states or the UK ? (your profile suggests USA). As this is predominately UK based forum I don't think many will be able to answer this as requirements in the US will be somewhat different to the UK.

    C220 diesel 2019 picture of a red bonnet when driving

    Definitely sounds like it thinks the bonnet is open, the reason I mentioned speed was because when I had my 2020 C Class the bonnet warning would only activate on the main road after leaving my estate. Very annoying after quickly checking fluids before driving. As I previously mentioned, I'd...

    C220 diesel 2019 picture of a red bonnet when driving

    Do you get an alarm also when you drive it? If the bonnet was open you'd also get an audible alarm with that message if you drive it above a certain speed, I think it is around 20 mph.

    C220 diesel 2019 picture of a red bonnet when driving

    From your description it sounds like the bonnet isn't fully closed. Open it and drop it closed (obviously not from a great height). Simply pushing it closed doesn't always engage the latch fully causing the sensor to think it is open. Caught me out a few times when I had my C Class.
