I have nothing but good things to say about MB Manchester central. They were fantastic with meDon't use Chelsea or Brentford. Brooklands are very good.
The car had been painted to tart up the little scuffs / scratches, as part of their pre sale preparation. It just so happened that the in house painters at MB Gatwick did a shoddy job both in their inability to mask off an area as well as the lack of quality control.
As mentioned earlier MB Gatwick didn't check over the car pre sale but then again, why would they.
The only reason I bought it via a dealer and this was my first experience at buying a second hand car though dealership was for the two year warranty. The AMG warranty booklet that I received on purchase covers pretty much everything including oil leaks etc, so I'm a bit surprised you had trouble with yours.
I will not ever set foot in MB Gatwick again so I hope the customer service can only improve elsewhere.
I might be wrong but the MB dealership network was shook up a number of years ago as money was being lost and has now orientated itself with sales being the only priority. This in combination with the fact that a large percentage people rent their cars for three years and then chuck them back may have something to do with the experience.
How many threads on here are reporting big problems with the M157 engine David?Reading this thread is making me think twice about buying an E63 M157
How many threads on here are reporting big problems with the M157 engine David?
I can think of only one other, E55BOF's.
How many threads have you seen reporting problems with the M156?
I'll tell you, multiple numbers.
I know which one I'd choose. Don't let two instances here put you off.
It was an eye opening experience, maybe I was naive but I'd never pay a dealer premium again, MBUK and the dealerships just don't want to know.
Regardless..... but if you've not done so, check out Tasos on the Youtube for your M157 /M156 fix.
I guess most engines have issues of one sort or another but these are seemingly recurring issues on the M157 that smack of cost savings.
It's a great platform and package and I enjoy it but the quality on my 2002 E39 M5 was better. I can't see the M157 having a similar life span.
