Just bought a brand new C350e AMG/AMG line. Loving the car very much. Getting bout 700-800km on Hybrid mode with 1 full tank and daily charging.

Beautiful AMG Carbon Fibre interior though biggrin.gif

As for power, it is superb given that we have dual power.

Seems like yours is the same as mine. I preferred the black ash wooden interior, lol..
Just came back from Genting. Uphill was a breeze. Meanwhile i could see a Toyota camry 2.4 and Ford ranger trying to catch with me with their loud roaring engine. When going downhill, my battery only left 7%. So i switch to Charge mode and by the time i reach the bottom hill, the battery was charge up to 84%, lol..

I didnt speed alot when going uphill coz my car have 5 adults and 4 toddlers, haihzz.. I wanted my brother in law to drive one more car but my mother in law insist on driving just one car. But i did overtake a few cars when going uphill using sports mode coz the suspension not so soft when taking corners. But when i go downhill, i used comfort coz too many speed humps. Most of the time i use comfort but when i on highway and feel like overtaking others or been tailgate, i will use sports mode.

hmm wahh thats quite heavy ah having so many ppl in the car and can still go up like a breeze . good to know!

I nver used sports before though, wonder if it consumes much higher Fuel ? Your experience on it bro?

Do you charge everyday?

Btw, do you hear any clicking sound at the steering wheel part though? just curious. I tend to hear it everytime i drive. not sure if it's normal.

I mostly use sports mode when i drive alone. Very responsive and less floaty. It will affect your FC coz it uses petrol. But driving experience is awesome. U should give a try when u wana do spirited driving and overtaking. My wife charge the car everyday.

Thank you for the tips bro! will certainly try it then tongue.gif but when it uses pure fuel, shudnt the power output decrease then? since our 280HP is based on combination of fuel and battery output? Im quite curious to know cause i wonder if Hybrid mode is more powerful than just 'charge' mode.

I also not sure how it works but when u switch to Sports mode, u can feel it is more responsive. Probably due to the high torque. I also cannot feel the power difference when using charge mode or hybrid mode together with Sports mode. But i think Sports + Charge will consume more petrol.

I'd been following this thread and the W205 too, for a while now. So itchy already... But alas, money not enough...
So my question to the forumers here is: does anyone wanna let go their C250 (W205) year 2016 and above?
My budget is only around RM210k (cash, no loan)... Kindly DM me your offer thumbup.gif
My apologies if this is post is inappropriate, thank you all!

Hi all, recently purchased a C180-W204.

Want to ask if you guys can recommend a place to service my new ride for a reasonable price and if you can quote the price too?

I am used to servicing my Honda at SC but it costs a bomb even for Honda. Always ends up with 500 - 1200.

Thanks. I have been searching around and ended up in a circle.

I see. My aunty just bought a pre-register A250 ckd 5 months ago. So far didnt heard any negative feedback from her.
To me, warranty is important coz my car have so many electronic features so i have no choice but to stick to their service center during the warranty period.
Any idea where u plan to service your car?

i see

most likely i can request to extend 1 yr warranty (depend on years of car) , but comes to service most likely will send to 3rd party workshop outside.

so far any issue on electronic / heating problem / parts / etc ?? how long your aunty bought the car?? where she service and how much ?
*
She bought the car early this year. Due to its a pre-registered car, the manufacturing date of the car should be last year. She purchased from either Cycle and Carriage (C&C) or Hap Seng Star (HSS) and is still under warranty. So she should be servicing in C&C/HSS SC. I havent heard any bad feedback yet coz the car is still relatively new. She and I haven't service the car yet coz we bought around the same time.

I think u can consider pre-registered cars coz it is cheaper. Some conditions are quite ok with low mileage. Most important it is still covered under warranty and some extend 1 more year warranty. U can have a peace of mind compare to recon cars.

First is, drive not so fast also can hear wind noise. Then they change dual layer front window.

Then now this. And then another warning. Left right light. Left n right indicator. Brake assist malfunction, then got engine indicator also. 1 by 1 la appear.
