New model C Class Sport Plus saloon

[Geordie Amanda]

thanks guys. Can't wait, but I am so busy at work that I will have to wait a little longer Still love tenerite grey though

Well I think it looks great Amanda - but then all the best people have black C350s!! I know how your mind is doing somersaults over the colour, I occasionally suffer the same. But then I see all the boring grey Fords and know I've made the right choice. Black is so much classier and will always look that way.

I opted for Alpaca Grey interior because I test drove one with black indoors and wanted a more airy feel. Again, that was the right choice for me without it being too overpowering because of all the black inside on things like the headlining and carpet.

But as soon as the next 2 weeks have gone by you'll be in there and loving every minute of it without a single regret. ENJOY.

Perhaps; perhaps not! Although I went for white as I already have a black Merc!

Anyone know if the new Polar White is a replacement for Calcite or Diamond white?

Wish to see more pics and updates soon

Looks great

Well I have seen it and sat in it and now have to leave it for a fortnight
I didn't have my camera with me, but I took a few emergency shots with my phone. The instrument cluster has a green tinge in the photo, but that is the camera flash going off, it looks silver in reality

I should add the seats were still covered so I couldn't take a snap of them either

Hey, have you picked up your C class Sport Plus yet? if so whats the verdict? what are the seats like?

 

[Geordie Amanda]

I have been working away for the last 2 weeks, but I shouod pick the car up tomorrow. Sadly it looks like rain is due, so I might not take pics. Fingers crossed though.

Thats great, enjoy it - hope to see some new pics. I have 1 on order but havent seen one properly.

 

[Geordie Amanda]

I got it at last! It was raining, so I guess I will never see it in it's brand new unmarked shiny condition So far so good. Here are a few pictures of it. I wasn't dressed appropriately to get down on the ground for the sexy low angle shots and I don't have time to blank the number plate properly.

Looks Superb !

Are the split/folding rear seats standard yet or still a option ?

EDIT - Just seen on page 2 that they are a £208 + VAT Option -

They were standard on mine

Does anyone know if there is supposed to be a flashing light to signify the alarm is activated?

oh and is there a way to turn the speed limit display off, on the central speedo display. It seemed like a good idea when I ordered the car, know it already annoys me

 

[Deleted member 65149]

Looks fantastic Amanda. Never thought I'd say this, but I'm jealous of your wheels. But that's balanced by prefering the interior of mine.

 

[waza]

Thank you for the pictures, on the cosmetic front the car looks great - you didnt stick with the red seat belts!! give us an update after a few days driving of what its like. Impressed by the wheels, look better than what the descriptions were illustrating.

Yes, on mine there is a red light that flashes just below the button for the hazard lights.

Using the left hand controls on the steering wheel, scroll right to "settings" and then it's in there (can't remember exactly where but have a look and you will find it)
