    My GLE 2018 stolen!

    Sorry to hear. Hope you get it back in reasonable condition. I turn off the remote if the car is nearby or at home, as you have suggested. Mine is garaged so less of a problem .

    Potential C Class owner

    Yeah it's a common issue on some cars around the tops of the doors. But surprised it is still present with the facelift. No proper fix unfortunately. Some resort to complaining hard to Mercedes and get acoustic glass fitted (an option in some markets) to block the noise out. Others resort to...

    Mobilo life is dead? RAC recovery service less features

    I've previously seen an MB PDF with specific monetary amounts of the limits in the small print, and vaguely recall the limits for plane were higher than taxi, probably due to the nature of the transport, so if Manchester to London for example, you could conceivably catch a plane back, but didn't...

    Mobilo life is dead? RAC recovery service less features

    There was a time when Mobilo life offered financial assistance for train, taxi and even air fares to get you to your destination if the car broke down, or you'd get hotel costs. With the bonus of a temporary rental car for a few days. Now it seems the Mercedes recovery service is bare bones, no...

    New MB pricing

    On my car the pre-safe system automatically moves the seat to a more favourable brace position, as well as tensioning seat belts, close windows/sunroof etc though like a fire extinguisher you hope you'll never have to use it that often. For everyday though, it's just handy like electric...

    Buying used car with known fault declared by the selling trader

    Agree with some others here, if it is an easy fix, the trade seller would have fixed it. Or maybe because of parts shortage the part isn't available, with long lead times e.g. 9 months - bit like the Nox sensors or some simple parts like wing mirrors.

    How long do (used) cars stay on sale?

    I guess as soon as possible given they start to advertise cars with 'coming soon' images. When they could wait and only advertise when they have proper photos and full spec. I've bought a used car 'coming soon' before it was even prepared from previous owner with a layer of dirt and scratches...

    Sytner Mercedes - The Club - Free Car Wash

    I had an older E Class in for some work and told them to not wash the car (but in those days I didn't yet put a note in the car to not wash). They accidentally washed it with strong pressure as well, stripping off the lacquer and paint from two of the alloy wheels. They automatically apologised...
