Hi, I had another thread running because I was looking at getting a new C Class however a 2012 C180 C Class Sport AMG Fire Opal caught my eye at MB Stevenage. With 16,000 miles on the clock and a £1000 dealer contribution to make it £15,450, it was a much more reasonable price for me so I went...

Hi All Looking to buy a W212 E250, was hoping to buy one before the end of the year as currently without a car however, if I wait til the next year is there likely to be better pricing based on your experience? I thought maybe there may be better deals out there now as some dealers may be...

Hi Guys, Can any gentlemen here guide me I bought this piece of crap for 27000 pounds from one of the approved MB used car dealers which they say we do rigorous tests so a simple common person should be tension free anyway long story short issues being faced in 9 days of usage and only driven...

Hi, Am looking at buying a 2011 E Class 350 Coupe from MB dealer, mileage is up a bit and dealer is very vague about price to change and is pushing MB finance offer. Alternatively I have found a similarly equipped 2010 CLS 350, 50k miles, for £1000 cheaper with warranty from a "prestige" car...

Hi, Can anyone tell me if you can have PCP finance from a main dealer on used approved please? If so when you come to part ex it (as opposed to paying the balloon) can you do it against another used approved? I am thinking of trading my E250 (which I own outright) for a 3 year old CLS. Thanks
