As some might have read before, I had to reject my C250d Estate after 18 days due to an inch+ of water sitting in the drivers foot well which caused the EML to fault. After much battling I eventually ordered a new C250d 4matic in Nov with a delivery for Feb/March. 2 weeks ago on the Friday I...

Purchased a brand new Hatchbag in August last year, was in my car approx 30 days before I rejected the car so now it's up forsale as I no longer own a Mercedes C Class. It's a must have for anyone with a dog that wants to keep the boot carpet clean. It's blue in colour with the Rear Seat...

Help me choose! So after the issues with my car I have two options currently open to me: 1) A replacement quite nicely loaded (everything except air suspension) C250d Estate with a 3 year service plan. Money wise it'll have a £2k deposit on PCP paying £520 pcm. 2) An Audi S4 Avant with...

Hi all, So my story started back in August, I purchased a new c250d AMG line estate, after a couple of weeks I wasn't very impressed with the dealer, but got a decent discount so thought I'd just put up with it and get the car. On 31st August I attended the midnight hand over, got the car...

Hi All, Has anyone got any experience on the 'Performance Exhaust' option on the C43? Apart from being louder are there any other gains for the £1000 extra?

Due to some 'troubles' I'm now driving about in a C300h, so thought I'd give a little review. I was sceptical about hybrid cars, the weight of batteries would far outweigh there benefits IMO. But I'm left pleasantly surprise. The C250d doesn't hang about, but you can feel the extra oomph...

Any advice on rejecting a newly delivered car? It lasted 18 days and 971 miles before EML came on when I was 400 miles from home. Took to local dealer, they reset it, said it was a faulty CAT sensor stored fault but nothing to worry about. Drove car off, got 1 mile light back on. Car went...

So picked the car up on the 1st Sept, now 921 miles in and have Engine Management light on! MB assist said they couldn't/wouldn't help, so to take it to a dealer "whenever suits me" Am currently on holiday 400 miles from home hopefully it's nothing too serious, don't want to be stuck in MB...

Hi All, Is there an easy/quick way of turning the interior sensor on/off without having to go into the vehicle settings EVERY time you need to switch it off? On other cars you can press the lock button multiple times and it disables the sensor, but I'm not sure that works with a C Class...

Has anyone tried to use Siri in there S/W 205? I was playing around last night looking through the menu's etc and found that you can activate siri by using the OK button and voice button on the steering wheel. Press and hold the two buttons, then you here the Siri tone, and off you go...

Hi All, Have been playing with the COMMAND system in my car, and it seems that it doesn't notify me of text messages, just comes up saying error unable to download messages. Is there something specific I need to do to get this working with an iPhone 6S?

So who's getting a new car tonight, tomorrow or in September? Will be collecting my first Mercedes tonight, then going on a little drive before heading to bed!

I was considering having Llumar paint protection film applied to the front of my car to help avoid so many stone chips etc. Has anyone had this done? Any thoughts on it? Main problem I guess is you can't use a pressure washer or such like as it would lift the film but for £1000 for just the...

Following on from the other thread on should you turn off your dash cam, thought it would be good to get some pictures of your dash cam installations, and which ones you purchased, whether it's front only or front and rear? Personally don't have one, but is a consideration, looking at the...

Visited my local dealership yesterday to sign the finance documents on my new car. After thinking about the whole process today, I'm contemplating cancelling my order! I think buying a new car should be an experience, and a good experience at that. Or maybe it's just the little things that...

Has anyone used 'Mercedes Me'? I have Remote Online on my car, so I've registered ready for collection, but it says that the dealer needs to activate something before it can be used?! Also is there a cost associated with this? BMW's ConnectedDrive is free for 3 years (from day of...

Has everything changed? I thought seems as I had 4 weeks before I pick up my new MB, it was worth putting my 2013 BMW up forsale privately to see if I can get more money than the trade in price. I took the trade in price added £2k and thought that was a good start, still cheaper than the rest...

Having recently purchased a Mercedes C250 they have offered me a 'Service Care' package at £34 per month which is to include 2 'A' Services and 2 'B' Services, as the car is PCP over 48 months this equates to £1632 which seems an incredibly large amount of money for 4 services! Bearing in mind...

Hello all, The registration process took some time, but am finally in and can post. Will be taking delivery of my C250d Estate on the 1st Sept, so looking forward to driving it, especially as I have a holiday late sept to Cornwall, so lots of driving! Came from an F31 BMW 320d, nice car, but...
