What do you want to know?

From January production it is. Do you know when your car is expected?

Thanks for the quick response JBD. Ordered for March 1st delivery ( I hope ! ).

Thanks JBD. So you think a black, diesel GLE Coupe, with the premium pack and porcelain leather would be in stock?

I've looked and there aren't any nationally. There's one arriving in December at another dealership. After that, you're looking at March.

Thank you for the information JBD.

Hi James.

Quickie question.

On the C Class 250d AMG Line. (Without air suspension) does the agility control switch alter the suspension in any way or is it just for different transmission modes?

Ant.

 

[JBD]

Yes, it alters the adaptive dampers

Hi JBD would you be able to check my Mercedes Me thingy if I PM you my car details? My dealership has confirmed that they have set things up from their end but when I log on there are no facilities available (tracking status, remote locking etc.). Are you meant to get a link to download the app as well? When I go to search on Google Playstore the only two apps that come up are the following:

PM me your reg, DOB and email address and I'll see if I can get into it

Thank you very much JBD - all up and running now! Really impressed with what can be done through the app - useful things like pushing to vehicle POI's and geo fencing. Amazing stuff. Here's a screenshot taken from the home screen, (configurable to display apps you use the most):

 

[JBD]

No problem. I'll pm you my address for the cheque

Trim Specification change

Hi JBD,

To try and cut a long story short, I originally requested the Fineline Dark Wood Trim (Gloss - H07) on a C350e Estate order with my leasing company back in June/July.

No allocated build date yet (Expecting Jan/Feb/Mar) and I would ideally like to change the trim to the new Black Ash Wood, or if production dates don't work for that then the Dark Ash Wood (Matt Finish - H09).

Have seen a document that states H07 has been replaced by H09 as of June spec/pricing update.

So question 1 - Do you think I would be able to change to the Black Ash without affecting current order progress?

If No to question 1 - question 2 is will the spec automatically change to the H09 Matt trim, or will I need to request the change of spec on the order.

Thanks!

 

[JBD]

You need to speak to the company you have ordered it through. They can run a spec change test on your order.
If it's built after the model change date, it will automatically change and the company you ordered through should advise you on that.

Hi JBD

Do you also deal with the sourcing of older Mercedes cars from say 2006 on? If you happen to do, can I send you more information as to what I am looking for? If not, can you point me better? I will be grateful for this.

Thanks

 

[JBD]

I sell cars back to about 07-08. Anything that's below condition standard is traded out. Are you looking for something specific?

Hi JBD

I am looking for a Mercedes E 220 CDI saloon after the 2006 facelift, preferably from MY 2007 on (07 or 57 plate on). My budget is up to £5,300.

Any suggestion/offer will be highly welcomed!

Thank you very much!

Unfortunately we wouldn't retail anything of that value. I don't have access to vehicles that don't end up on the forecourt, so I can't really help you out

Hi JBD

It is ok then. Do not worry. Thank you for taking the time.

Any idea of a ballpark figure for a replacement rear alloy for the C350e, it'd be the standard fit 17" version. Clipped it already and wondering how much a replacement might be if I need one towards the end of my lease!

Can it not be refurbished?

Firstly thanks for offering to help us who are not in the know.

Winter wheels....I have had conflicting information from the dealer I am buying my W205 AMG prem plus with 19" wheels from and the dealer who stores my 17" winter wheels (oem) for my current W204 amg sport plus.

Will the 17" winter wheels fit on the W205?

Thanks in advance
