Hi,
Ordered a new E Class. Got pretty much everything with exception to the Driving Assistance Package. This contains:
Distronic Plus with Pre-Safe® Brake
Active Blind Spot Assist
Lane-Keeping Assist
PRE-SAFE® PLUS
DISTRONIC PLUS with Cross-Traffic Assist (DTR+Q)
Enhanced Brake Assist (BAS+)
Brake Assist PLUS with Cross-Traffic Assist (BAS+Q)
PRE-SAFE® PLUS
Collision mitigation
rrp is £2345 but i probably can get a discount on this.
From my understanding the Distronic Plus pretty much drives the car up to 80mph with a predetermined distance between you and the cover in front and takes control of the steering to keep the car in lane between lines.
I've just come back home after an hour on A and B roads and if i understand the technology right the car would've pretty much driven me home! Of course, i understand the car wouldn't have driven me round roundabouts and at junctions.
Has anyone got this and if so, what is your experience? Would you recommend it?
Also, what sort of price would you offer the dealer to add this option to a pre-ordered but not yet built car?
Many thanks.
