Intro - new owner

[SiW]

Hi all. I recently purchased a 2019 C43, so thought id say hello.
I absolutely love the car. Previous owner had the Pan-Am grill fitted. The Merc dealership told me it was fitted at the factory but ive never heard of that being a new build option.
My only gripe with the car is the weak rear offset. The front wheels look fine to me but I can’t understand why Merc used such a high offset on the rear.
Anyway, first post down! I’ll be milling about looking for a solution to the rear wheel issue.
Cheers all!

Greetings and welcome to the group from me - There are many things that Mercedes did that make you wonder why? But all part of the experience

Hi! Not sure what you mean…

Nice. What have you moved on to?

A BMW M340i. I like to change my car every few years and the new C43 just priced itself out of the market. The M340i is pretty similar on paper, interior is nowhere near as lush but it has a better 4WD system and retains a 6 cylinder engine. I was also able to get £7k off of a brand new one

Hi , very sorry about delayed reply.

You have the benefit of a fast car but I economy is good in comparison to the V8s.
