Well, C-class to GLC, the deed is done!

[ShireMan]

Have been most content with my ageing C-class (120k+ miles = just run in), the dreaded sub-frame issue suddenly became apparent at MOT so decided to bite the bullet and p/e for a pittance.

Just signed the order for a used but newer GLC premium plus.

Hopefully will see me into my dotage and be a useful load carrier for family and friends, plus big enough boot for my dog(ESS).

Just ordered both a lipped rubber boot tray and Stayclean car boot liner with integral bumper flap. That’s the dog sorted then!!

Will check Command Sat-nav update level and bring to latest version.

Has a great sound-system so will be listening to everything from classical, to rock, to Ska

Anything others have found to be a general GLC ‘must-have’ ??

Obviously will read the manual & cross-check VIN data to know what I’ve got

Good to hear you have your priorities right and the dogs are sorted in advance!
Enjoy your new motor...and we need pictures ( of the woofers and maybe even the GLC)

Any issues with front tyres skipping and banging yet ??

 

[ShireMan]

There’s a bit of crabbing noticeable at low speed turning.
Though I’m used to worse on my MiL’s X3 TBH.

Currently default summer tyres but once they wear down (and it gets worse) I’ll switch to all-season tyres

Mine was awful on brand new summers . All seasons on and it disappeared, for how long I've yet to find out. Looking for another set of rims so I can switch .

I had 2 wheel sets for my C-class, summers & all-season, stopped swoping to summers as the Michelins were so good in all weather

C class won't of crabbed though. I'm looking to preserve the life of my all season tyres , as I've still got the summers , just need some rims.
