    Build Quality

    Is it me or is it asking too much for a 1 year old B Class to still be looking new. Just discovered the center caps on allloys are already peeling from weather damage I find that a bit poor

    AMG v standard build quality

    Do the AMG variants suffer the same bodywork problems as the standard models? For instance, would a W210 E55 turn into a pile of rust at the same rate as an E220?

    C Coupe Build + Handling

    Hi Guys, I've been reading the forums for the past couple of weeks as I have been looking at a c class coupé and now I feel the need to pick your brains if I could. I test drove a C Class Coupe sport plus yesterday and found it a little underwhelming in terms of both build quality and...

    Not so happy with the build quality. :(

    Few things popping up at the moment. Most annoying thing if the rattle I am getting from somewhere in the center console which makes me feel like I am driving a £600 car. It only happens at around 70mph at low revs. It comes from around the climate control. Very disappointing. On top of that...

    Build Quality

    I thought it had improved. Ive had my car just over 3 years and noticed this today while cleaning the car. The clearcoat has come of in several places on the front of the bonnet. The reat of the car is fine. I have phoned my nearest dealer and as they are 100 miles away, Im being asked to get a...

    BMW 6 series Grand Sport Build Quality

    It's motorexpo at Canary Wharf, and the new BMW 6 series Gran Coupe, the CLS's competitor, is on display. The design is not cohesive at all .. the lines jar, there are far too many lines, the front is ugly with a jaw that's too big, the rear is hideous with lighting that just does not gel...

    Mercedes Build Quality

    Well, today I experienced the renowned Merc build quality, for better and worse. The previous owner clearly had kids, and they liked to secrete food and cutlery around the cabin, so I have been taking the seats out, trim out, pretty much most things in order to find all the grot and clean it...

    Car build cost

    I've just been sent a text from my local MB dealer saying that the first 150 new cars sold this weekend will be at cost + £1. Anyone know the true cost of building a Mercedes? :D

    Received Build Date - C250 CDi

    Just wanted to share the news that dealer has advised build date for my car is 29th March and will be ready to pick up 15th April. Not too long to go even though I hate waiting (guess most do). I presume this date is an ever moving date and can pull or push? Details of car ordered are...

    Build date arrives

    My C350 Coupe gets built tomorrow, so I am reliably informed by the dealer. Delivery is in 9 days times. Just wondering what happens in the 9 days gap? Quality control, etc?

    How to build a W204

    Shamelessly nicked from a post link on the dark side - some video footage of the W204 assembly line at SINDELFINGEN. I rather liked one comment where someone complained they didn't show the robot that installed the rattle behind the dash. :p The pano roof install is impressive as is the...
