Guys need help here. Currently driving CLA200. Anyone know where to look for high-quality replicas AMG bodykit? Found the rims.

Consulted with Hap Seng and it will cost me 30-40k for original bodykits. No point spending that much on the exterior tbh.

Bro,
Drive with style la...why use fake goods? I believed ori kits come with Steerling wheel, skirt, trim and gear knob and rims.

When i bought my A250, thr was no discount .

I doubt thr will be any disc now as it is selling so well. The A200 has discount but that is because the A200 is not a hot seller.

Also maintainence for the A250 is pretty high. I thought VW was expensive, but Merc has brought it to the nxt level
*
Lol....not to pour cold water! The A class isn't selling that well! Go check out vearious showrooms, plenty of ready stock! even the A 250! Saw a few pre registered units!

It is selling very well for its price point and considering its a hatchback. Go to VW showroom and ask the SA how many GTIs they are selling or for that matter, go ask BMW SA and see how many 125is they are selling.

Then only will u understand . Plenty of ready stock? Haha, I think u must have been fooled by the cars in the showroom. Probably already have owners.

Go try to book an A250 and see how long u have to wait. I waited 8 months. Maybe now shorter as they have managed to bring in more allocation.

Go on and join the A-Class CLub. Have alook at how many members we have already in a short span of time.

Lol....FL is coming soon and enjoy your ride! Maybe u and ask yr Sa about the sales of the A class now. No doubt when it was launched it sells like hotcake!

Does anybody know what is the cost for a navigation map update from a dealer? Just a rough cost.

I am assuming that there are no free map updates for the first couple of years?

Thanks in advance.

I have a 2014 W212 E250.

According to the mybenz forum , there is a guy can do the upgrade for 2 grands! According to MBM, no free update!

I did ask before but no clear answer! Don't think the local dealers do upgrading of the map!

I plan to get a new C200 Avantgarde 2015.
Any users here? Can you share your honest review on this car?

I'm decising C200 or BMW 3 series. I need some reviews.
Thanks.

BMW 's interior is so boring! From E36 till F30 also similar design! No comment as I have yet to test drive it! Only downside is the workmanship of MBM ! I heard rattling sounds is common! Still not rectified from w204. Sigh!

I spoke to my 2 friends who are the VW owners, they told me stay away from VW.
I spoke to the sales advisor of VW, the guy couldn't even tell me which model is the less problematic car. 
(The guy mumbled Tiguan though).
Many VW outlets in JB already closed down since 2014.
VW sales has dropped 60% since 2014.
http://www.motortrader.com.my/news/new-veh...er-total-sales/

Looking at the feedback, close down of sales and service outlets and plunge of sales turnover, sorry, I'm not going to risk MYR300K on a VW.
It's not about the money per se. It is the common sense.  tongue.gif

Thought jb only has one outlet selling vw? The one next to see and see! The only vw I will get would be the passat cc! Superb gearbox! What model of vw so exp that cost 300k? Touareg?

Cycle & Carriage now offer Guarantee Value Protection for selected model.

Basically very summaries example :

Brought an A Class - RM205,000
1st Year Insurance Agreed Value - RM205,000
2nd Year Insurance Agreed Value - RM180,000
3rd Year Insurance Agreed Value - RM150,000

Assuming, your car is stolen/total loss during the 3rd year of usage;
Insurance will only pay back (or you can claim) RM150,000 (due to Agreed Value)

So with GVP, C&C will top-up RM205,000 (Purchase Price) - RM150,000 (Insurance Claim) = RM55,000 to You =)

One of the T&C, you must buy-back a Mercedes Vehicle from C&C
*
Why need to be so mafan? Most insurance companieze provide 'agreed value clause' up to 10 years! You can choose to insure your purchased price even after 5 years! Just pay the premium only mah! The above that u listed is " market value clause'! It goes by years of depreciation value! Bery subjective this one!

Sorry, maybe my English is not good enough. That make you misunderstood.
I am just stating a example for easy calculation purpose.

Yes, you can insured base on purchase price for many years, they would be happy if you insist, not an issue for them.
But if say eg. The Car is already 3 years old and it has been stolen. Now, with the Insurnace cover which you had purchase the premium at car purchased price.

Do you think Insurance will pay you the Claim amount at Car Purchased Price? From my knowledge I could be wrong, please correct me if I am at wrong.

Well they won't, they would only pay you base on market value of your car. Cause the Insurnace you brought at Purchased Price is not agreed value.

I trying to say is, GVP will top up the Difference between Original Car price and the Insurnace claim.
*
If your policy is attached with 'agreed value clause', the insurenace company will pay the full insured amount less excess if any in the event of theft or constructive total loss! No market value involved! Agreed value means the insured and the insurance company agreed on a fixed sum insured at the point of erecting the policy! I still insured my car at rm 280k after 3 years with the above clause! If according to mkt value, my car worth only 180k max! The GVP to me is a gimmick, you have to purchase another mercs to activate this coverage!

its not a gimmick is more like an additional Insurnace.
Put in this way, you mention you still insured your car Insurnace at 280K agreed value after 3 years. Is the Cost of purchase of your car also 280K?

From what I know agreed value of the Insurnace (for cars) drop every year

Just curious
*
Mine is ckd 2013 bought at rm280k. Most insurance companies practice 5years agreed value sum insured of ori purchase price! After which you can negotiate with the underwriter on the sum insured!
