Got rear ended by a Mini yesterday I was slowing for traffic ahead and the lady behind me did not notice, hence slammed! into the back of me! I think my towbar took most of the impact but the sides of the rear bumper concertined. Imapact was so hard that the Audio 20 popped out of the dash
Everybody OK thankfully (she fully admitted it was her fault) Must say that Stratstones are on the ball. Taken over the claim for me and delivered an '09 CDi220 Sport Auto to the door with just 3K on the clock to use whilst my W211 is in for repair at MB Blackpool.
Lovely car (except the mirrors - am I alone in thinking that the W204 has pig-ugly wing mirrors?) Seems to have most things (Bluetooth/Phone, Audio50 SatNav, Parktronic and paddle shift - but strangely no leather) Which leads me to my question - what use are paddles on this type of car? Does anybody actually use them?
Tell you what though - I don't half miss the SBC Hold on my E-class! A fantastic feature
