What do you want to know?

May I also ask if it is possible to remove the bonnet badge, where the Mercedes Star usually stood, without leaving any holes or marks or indentations, please?

No, as it's sunk in to the bonnet, not stuck on

Hi JBD & fellow Mbclub members

Is there a boot liner available for the C350e Estate?

Not that I have seen yet, same for the saloon

JBD, in another thread, you mention that MB have informed you the the W205 will not receive CarPlay until it is face lifted. Given this, do you know or have a view as to when the W205 is due to be face lifted, please?

Nothing official, but I'd expect it in year 3, so end of next year

JBD what are lead times on brand new A45 and CLA45 at the moment?

It does depend on your local dealerships allocation, but we are at 18/03/2016 arrival for CLA and 29/02/2016 arrival for A

Thanks JBD, super quick reply. That's a quicker lead time than I expected too. Do you think that's fairly typical throughout the year, eg, could I be confident that a car would arrive in early November if I order in late order in early August?

As I said, it's down to the individual dealer, but 3 months is normally ok

Hi there,

Do you know the current approximate lead times for the estate and saloon c350e? I know they were lengthy for those ordering in first half of last year but just wondering if they are beginning to come down. I have an estate just being ordered and my colleague has a saloon. Both in Sport spec.

It's completely down to the retailer you buy through. We all get our own individual allocation, so it depends on how many orders they've taken

Hey James.

As you know we had the chance of a great deal on a C Class Lease which we had to cancel. We've recently started looking again but the monthly payments have gone through the roof on the car we want.

With the new E Class on the way do you think they'll be good leasing deals to be had on it?(as there was on the C Class within the first year)

Cheers, Ant.

 

[JBD]

As with all new cars, it'll be more expensive at first. They're trying to push it further up market

I hope everyone who will be picking up their new 16 plate cars next week enjoy them. Apologies in advance if I'm slow to respond on here, it's going to be a bit mental with handovers
In other news, our GLS arrives on Thursday

Hi JBD,

Do you know when C43 prices and finance deals will be known? It's the estate I'm interested in.

TIA

It's arriving in quarter 3, so I expect pricing should arrive by June

Hi JBD,
Could you tell me what the current lead times are on an E class coupe , 220D AMG line edition please. Also would the addition of a panoramic roof delay it ?

 

[JBD]

No, adding a pan roof shouldn't delay it. Lead times are dependant on your specific retailers allocation, but I'll check ours when I get into work

 

[JBD]

Our next built slot for a factory order is expected to arrive on the 16th of May

Hi JBD,
Thanks very much for the info and the quick reply, two months isn't bad really.

 

[JBD]

I'll be going to Croatia on global training on Monday to drive the C63 Coupe, SL, SLC and E Class. I'll also be viewing the new C Cab. If anyone has any specific questions, just let me know. I'll put some pictures up after
