ML350 now on my drive!

[Gucci]

:bannana: FINALLY FINALLY....the neighbours craning their necks as I rocked up on the drive. The fuel light when I picked it up was obviously on, but the needle was BELOW that! Stuck £45 quid in, the needle took a bit of time to find the right level on the journey back. SOUNDS awsome! Only problem was when I got home..i had no aerial! How much for those?

Buffing her tonight!

:bannana:

Congrats - photo's asap too

Dunno, but I would be miffed if I had just bought a vehicle and the radio did not work (no aerial?) I would be knocking on the sellers door. Mind you I ALWAYS advise on checking all the electrical gadgets before parting with my hard earned pennies

Have you read this report? It sounds a very nice vehicle. Thick old me was only recently informed they made this model as a 350.

Congratulations and like pammy I look forward to seeing some pictures.

I thought that the aerial was built into the heated rear window.

 

[A210AMG]

Hello,


Yippie, its great isn't it.

I also thought the aerial built in as I cannot remember seeing one on mine?

Now your problem is trying to keep it clean.

Get them pictures up asap, then we can think about starting our Inspiration club....


Cheers

I haven't had an aerial on my car since my W126 . These days they are built-in to the rear window, aren't they?

Not on the B class anyway

Not on the B class anyway

I learn something new every day here .

 

[pammy]

Some are in the bumper - R170 for eample - and some new models are going back to externals - R171 for example - moral - you need to find where it is on your model

 

[Ted]

Woo-hoo! Congratulations!
Couldn't tempt you with the G class then?

Yep, quite right....although I'd always intended to change the radio as the standard one is poop, so not concerned. Thought I'd tested all the buttons though...plenty of them

 

[A210AMG]

Gucci,


How do you like it...


Put all the windows down and hit the lound pedal, have to say for a truck it does make a nice sound...

I keep finding stuff like the mirror(s) that dip, the lights that stay on for a little bit when I park it etc etc

Love it

Which radio does the inspiration have as standard, is it single din or double din, never seen one.

 

[Gucci]

A210 AMG

YOU WERE SOOOOO RIGHT! Love it love it! Yep, the mirrors tilting down was brilliant! The sound is fantastic isn't it? I actually preferred the experience of driving this over the ML500. Really luxurious, love the leather and the black wood...depite the girlfriend saying she though it looked dusty!!! It's the grain..it's SUPPOSED to look like that! She's having to stand outside and think about what she said. Looking forward to spending the weekend with it...loved it when the neighbours curtains twitched when I turned up

Thanks again for your advice....forever in your debt!!! (By the way, did you look at the link glojo left?)

Single I think?

 

[A210AMG]

Hello Andy,

Mines a Audio 10 ? I think, its the same as in the wifes A210.

Think I will change it at some point but do like the 'factory' look over alternatives and have put my ipod in so quite happy for now..


Cheers

 

[A210AMG]

Gucci,

No problem, when I look at things I tend to go a bit geeky and hence why I wanted the inspiration, yes its similar to a normal ML but so many nice little touches, the seats (out of an ML55) are lovely and the stitching / leather wheel etc really nice.

I did the same when we looked for a car for the wife as our first baby was due, hence the A210 AMG LWB Evo... a mouthful but a really nice usable bus and very very rare.

Get them pictures posted.

I just looked at where your from, and laughed as I drove to mainstone from chester to get mine as they are quite rare...worth it though.

Cheers

 

[Andy W]

I wouldn't mind getting a double din radio to fill the slot on mine as the W164 has, looks much better.

 

[Gucci]

Yes I need to sort myself out getting photos...but been so busy at work, haven't had time to drive it!!

p.s Chrome detailing around dials...
