Excellent looking car! Premium Plus model? I have an Obsidian black one on order, can't wait. Any view on the car so far?

Welcome to the forum.
Great looking car you have chosen

What's the betting the reg number you erased in your photo is 93

 

[Bcz93]

James- yep it is the premium plus model, the toys are brilliant and the ride is nice as i do a lot of motorway driving, having a few problems at moment, teething problems
i had a rattle on the back left door, that is fixed and now its on the right and the gears seem to hold on to 1,2,3rd but not all the time, so i need to get it back and see if they can reset it,
still learning about the car as i keep finding new things each day
let me know what you think when you get yours

I simply love the spec of the Premium Plus...I know it pumps the price up but I really think its worth the extra cost. Disappointed to hear of your rattles and the sticky gears - doesn't sound good for a 40k motor! I hope they don't taint your view and they get fixed. My 7 year old son say a Tenorite Grey estate AMG line the other day...told me it was his favourite colour and asked if I could change my order!

the ride is nice

...I must admit I am worried about the ride. I ordered on the back of a 5 day test drive in a Sport with comfort suspension so have never driven an AMG with Sport suspension. Did you spec Airmatic? I didn't

No i got told to leave the airmatic alone as i was told when it does hit any pot holes it bangs so loud, it may be good on motorways but the standard AMG set up is brilliant on smooth roads, its better than i thought so save your money

i had a C220 cdi on loan last week with airmatic and it was too smooth and didnt feel sporty for the country roads near me
youll be happy without it trust me

Also forgot to say, once you get use to the car, invest in a plug N play chip box
simply just plug it into the ecu and ecu into your box and away you go
its a new car altogether, am getting 64mpg on motorways and 56 mpg around town and the low down torque is brilliant
