C63 Owners do you get problems?

[DannyHall]

Awful to hear, haven't had any issues so far with mine touch wood.

Whole carpark thing I think is common with us all, i'm definitely picky on whom I park next to and try not to park next to cars with kids stickers or baby seats. Sounds daft I know!

Yet to have any incidents so i guess i'l just have to continue parking 2 mile away from the shop

Sorry to hear it, as others have said, jealousy.

I recently installed a rear dashcam and although people don't tailgate me, (I only have a humble AMG line, not full blown AMG)

In traffic, drivers behind me did play the 'let's see how close I can get to his rear bumper' game which annoys me. With the rear dashcam, they seem to keep well away

Although I'm hoping no one will smash the window and nick it, or the front one.
I don't mind losing the cams, it's the damage.

I've been lucky so far and had nothing but good experiences with the C63. I'm only just 26 and did fear that people may have jealously issues but so far it's been the opposite. I've had many drivers give me a thumbs up and asking for me to put my foot down. Had a few people hanging out of windows videoing on a mobile phone too

Never had any issues with C63. Very positive comments from my male co-workers, nothing in the car park. No issues at home or any other place. But that's Surrey.

Only once, on the same afternoon in Germany, two M3 drivers wanted to race with me.

I think I'm going to see my C63 today, as it's at Brooklands for sale for months now.

Shame to hear of your experience Stuart, but it their behaviour says a lot more about them than your car does about you, so don't be too disheartened and certainly don't be giving the 63 up!
In stark contrast to your experience, I have only had positive comments about my CLS, as it too is understated, rear fully debadged, wing badges remain in situ but go pretty much unoticed, its the orange calipers and the start up that give the game away

Thanks guys!

Went to an M3/4 Dyno day yesterday and have to say although my car isn't running what I assumed it was the day was amusing as I ran higher than any of the new M3/4's and even the tuned ones were only hitting 474bhp!!!

Had a very enjoyable drive out with my neighbour in his F13 M6

Does your car have any mods?

 

[RJ C63]

Generally only positive comments apart from the usual suspects wanting to race...

 

[Sazzyb]

I always park so far out in car parks and yet somehow there's always that one individual that will park next to you.

Happens to me in my 124 also. Usually some non Mercedes 2 door effort too. Hate parking niext to cars with childseats in the back. You just know what is going to happen if you park there.

Eurocharged Map, One pair of cats gutted, LSD.

Well in the next 24 hours I get to find out if this guy has a pop at my car again. Wish me luck!

Good luck, hope it's an uneventful week for the car.

Remember that sometimes if you react to such behaviour you can become a target. This wouldn't apply if it was not your place of work and you didn't have to park there every day.

Oh I know mate it isn't worth having a go at someone over. I am going to get front and rear dash cams sorted this week. Been meaning to do it for ages anyway its just I want a Road Angel Halo as they are less cumbersome.

No sign of the nutter yet.

Are you parking on the pavement?

 

[StuartK]

Are you parking on the pavement?

No in a marked bay opposite my office on the road.

 

[Deleted member 6183]

Marked 'Residents only'?

 

[StuartK]

Marked 'Residents only'?

No mate. Do you think im stupid or something because most of your post towards me suggest that?

(In other words your an annoyance on this forum to me)

 

[Deleted member 6183]

I'm trying to help you.

You started a post asking if you are the only one who experiences such issues and it does seem that you are in the minority so I am helping you explore some avenues which may lead you to the true reasons behind the difficulty that you experience.
