I think those that have dates are ok, i had some issues with paperwork that cost me a few weeks meaning i was just outside the price lock, now one could argue the reasons for the paperwork delays.... but hey ho. onwards. As for the Golf, it's a normal 2 year lease, not one thats been handed...

No idea?? :dk: I'd expect slight variances with tax code and salary etc.., Right now if I quote the C350e again its £376 for me, but it was originally £306, which was a no brainer ! The Golf GTE is on special offer on NHSFleet at moment for delivery next month and lower costs for 2 year...

This IS the problem i think, the pricing was too low (if im honest) For me, 14k miles, WAS £306 for C350e prem plus Brilliant Blue, but now £380 Golf GTE 14k miles is under £250 BMW i3 is a good car... but I just cant gel with the shape A3 etron I dont like styling, just boring Outlander PHEV...

Sad news, my order for the C350e is being pulled by NHS Fleet as apparently the price of the C350e has changed dramatically and the leasing costs have jumped by £70 per month , not massive I know but significant in percentage terms. I could reorder with the long lead times if I'm prepared to...

good luck i still don't have a date :( Worried now MB wont accept it from lease company

100% agree it's great having JBD on the forum and to get answers like he provides..... please stay JBD :) no issues should be directed at JBD directly, hes been nothing but helpful in all of this and quite rightly protects the MB position when needed (like the £5000 grant thread), we all need...

interesting just priced 70d on the lease scheme and its significantly more expensive than the C350e (£270 more!) So rules that out :( Other option is the Golf GTE, which I drove this week, its a very nice drive, Dual Clutch is very smooth, performance is good (Not as quick as C350e however)...

really? I thought the Tesla S started at £59k??

yes they have it in place but the categories leave some of the c350e outside the grant criteria. that means any C350e not eligible for Cat 1 or Cat 3 and ONLY the Saloon with 17s and the Estate with 17s (no prem or prem plus) is eligible for Cat 2 I hope MB are revising the models to...

It IS the 18s raising the co2, but the pano roof requires the 18s on the estate. It's a pity cos it's so close to the threshold :(

thats what i intend to do, but it's not as economical as upgrading to the wheels (apart from the tax and grant hit!)

Big hit for 18 inch wheels !, surelyMB can squeeze another mile out of distance somehow....

Yes sticking with17s to stay sub 50g

in an interesting twist on the Auxiliary heating in the C350e, if W205 have Auxiliary heating they are supposed to have rear zone controls.... so does the C350e have rear zone controls? Reading the online owners manual would suggest it should?

It was certainly my understanding that remote online facility was included on the prem plus?? Hope someone can confirm this!

yeah wasn't sure on UK/US gallons :) If I get 60mpg on the C350e I'll be happy! I was planning around 45mpg average to make it just about worthwhile for a hybrid

another update on the white c350e above (facebook) showing 4.4l/100km (53mpg?) https://www.facebook.com/marioromanpictures/posts/10153293784794376:0

Some great feedback on that (lucky) C350e owner on MBWorld, including which features work well and MPG over admittedly short distance.... a thread to watch ! Yeah! My C350e is here! - MBWorld.org Forums

such good value that on NHS Fleet, for the Estate with additional BIK, great value ! My Saloon order is significantly lower than the estate :)

Some photos below quickly in the local MB Dealers today, hard to catch the light right for the type of blue it is! Not quite catching the light right as it looks darker than it is This is probably the best picture to show the colour ! Premium plus screen is really nice too ...
