- you are quite right !

Thanks Rory, always reassuring. I think I will get the car valeted and polished and rock up at MB at that - as you say, I was minded only to use an MB accredited cosmetic repair service, then there is no repercussions - once again, thanks guys:thumb:

Sorry, I should have clarified, this is my second 3 year PCP - not a six year PCP There are some very good and reputable companies who do wheel refurbishment - the car is a standard Class Coupe 220 Cdi AMG 2013 Plate - with standard issue wheels. the interior is very clean and tidy as I have...

Any replies guys ?

Hello Guys - well this is my second car lease and sadly after six years I have to trim my sails and hand the car back, as the current lease comes to an end in January. All is well mechanically with the car, except a couple of curbed/scuffed wheels - that are not too bad and just near the door...

I suspect,when driving around town,there will be a lot more gear selection,so I think 'c' mode is actually better suited to cruising on motorways etc - whilst 's' mode better suits lower gear selections in town driving - I think the 's' mode selects a lower gear for better/quicker...

That should entitle you to £40.00 of vouchers - it appears on the site,when you login,you can (request) to redeem your points - I think sometimes they are sent every quarter, but in your case,I would definitely request them.

Many thanks Guys for contributing to this debate,all your comments have been interesting - can I add one my last final thoughts - I think the loyalty card retailers probably get far more out of this than the end user - particularly in spending habits/data gathering. I suspect that we are all...

For sure,I heard the reader beep each time and the transactions for the triple points offer,are on my Shell Drivers statement,when I logged in - the problem seems to be with Shell - Dieselman - perhaps my points are going to your missus !!!!! - anyway,once again,I will ring them up,just because...

Our local Garage recently converted from a Shell Forecourt to a Texaco Forecourt.Prior to this I collected fuel points on my Shell Drivers Club Card - to be honest,I was never over enthusiastic about the points - they seemed mean - but the Garage offered its own 3p/4p off a litre coupons so I...

Mercedes have made a lot of progress in fuel efficiency - they have had to - gone are the days when if you owned an MB,if you were bothered by the fuel consumption,then it was considered vulgar. This my third MB and after the first gas guzzler,the second CLK improved by an average of 10-12 mpg...

Yes - I am a meany when it comes to my right foot,I have got 80mpg once going to Harrogate - there is part of the system that analyses your style of driving on a 100% scale based on constant speed/acceleration/cruising - it measures all three at the same time - obviously,if you constantly...

I have eco start on my MB C Class Coupe - its fantastic - I achieved an average of 71mpg on a 636 mile round trip - well happy - its a 2013 plate C220

I always stick with MBO - usually Continental - but have used Nokian Winter Tyres on my earlier CLK

Hello - anyone ?
