VERY Reformed Defector !

[sym]

So ... was time for a change, and today I bought ..... one of these

Traditional Silver / Black Leather combination, lots of AMG sporty bits, all the right spec, a nice economical diesel engine, and ....... no BMW badge ... again !!

(Think I'm cured !)

Pick up next week, and rather pleased

Just somebody stop me from modding it !

Go on, you know you want to

Looks fantastic Sym.

The outside clearly taken care of so modding for you!

Think you need a COMAND in there though!!!

Just checked the spec of the C200CDI and I imaginne a nicer drive than your T202 C200 with all that extra torque.

Looks great - glad you're finally feeling better

Have driven and am more than happy with the performance - given my usage - will be trying to extract maximum MPG, but has a decent amount of torque if needed - will be debadged so hopefully discourage anybody from trying to drive me off the road !

Chose to go for more spec over a more basic 220 / 270 - this one is fairly loaded with heated electric 'leather' (artico) sport seats, full parktronic, phone pre-wire, CD Changer (which should play MP3s), as you say, just missing COMAND, but have lived without it for long enough - although I suspect I may be speaking to Alfie at some point !

Anybody know how easy it is to fit a steering wheel with the gearshift paddles - as that's the only other notable thing that its missing, and I would have quite liked to have.

Good spec. On the MPG front it has to be good, at least as good as the B180CDI I bet.

As you know I am a semi diesel convert and I am very impressd with that choice Sym.

Oooooooooooooh......it's gorrrrrgeous!

Welcome back to the fold Sym.

Nice choice mate.:bannana:

 

[crockers]

Looks lovely - as for paddleshifts - I dont think they can be retro fitted as I do believe the gearbox for these has an extra mode...I may be wrong and will let the tecky experts give the definitive answer

 

[gurpz]

Nice one !

Good choice. Let me know when you are interested in COMAND. I'm sure we can do you a very good deal

EDIT: we can move your IPOD interface across too if you like.

 

[Thmsshaun]

Very nice indeed

 

[fuzzer]

nice one glad you went with this

 

[Bobby Dazzler]

Nice looking car!! ...but I would say that wouldn't I??!!

PS I think those wheels look great - especially the rears.

245/40/17 on the back .. staggered set up .. yeah - I know

 

[A-AvantGarde]

Nice choice, AMG kitted W203's look great (but I would said that wouldn't I !!!)

Stop modding? Don't think that's possible is it

 

[A210AMG]

Nice spec,

Like the wheels, should do huge mpg?

cheers
