What do you want to know?

JBD.

How bad are the delays for cars specced with the leather dashboard. My delivery has been pushed back 2 months till May and thats not even guaranteed.

I ordered car 1st week in November and delivery was to be at the end of February.

I think I am going to cancel anyway and will only entertain waiting 2 months if I am given a firm date. I cant be waiting 6 months for an ordinary C200 albeit a highly specced one.

The dealership would just need to find a build slot that already has it specified. It is an option that's restricted availability at the moment. If you tell me your spec, I'll have a look tomorrow

I suggest you speak to your local parts department, I'm sure they'll be happy to help.

I can't find any existing build slots with the leather dashboard option. It looks like it's not available for the moment. It's showing on my retailer communication bulletin that's it's not available until April build

JBD - just wanted to say thanks and 'keep up the good work' as I noticed you've had this thread going for almost 2 years now

No problem, it's been a pleasure. Thanks for the positive feedback!

Wouldn't they have known in November when EClassy placed the order that the leather dashes were in limited supply rather than waiting til now to advise?

No, it just says now that all available build slots with that option have been taken

JBD - have you heard anything internally (not just on the internet) about the possible C63-R?

Cheers

How much is a new rear alloy wheel for c350e? It is 17" and is standard not from night pack option.

Also, how do I stop passenger heated seat from coming on automatically?

Many thanks as always

Just found and read this thread. No specific questions for you JBD, just a 'thank you' for doing it.

I'd need to speak to the parts department. Have you got a price locally?

What do you mean? Is the heated seat just coming on as soon as you get in the car?

Should be a few exciting months for me at MB. Various AMG cars on order for customers, which I can't wait to see. All arriving in May or June

A GLC43 Coupe ordered yesterday

The updated GTS ordered on Friday

And the GTR ordered two years ago

Not to mention the SLC43, CLA45, A45 and C63S Coupe in March. I love AMG

The E Coupe is arriving next month and we should have an E63 pretty soon!

Not yet, it's a lease car so want to avoid any potential problems when it is returned.

Yes, both of them come on by their own. Not all the time though! Only when it's cold. It's a pain reaching over to switch it off, especially as it's using my precious electric!

I don't think it's supposed to do that

Ok, thanks. I'll have a look in the manual to see what it says, if anything.
