Did my 1st service at C&C. Cost me RM1250.
Any idea what the 2nd, 3rd and 4th service will cost ?
Need to start saving money just to service the car.
It's a C200.

erk... why so expensive? hmm.gif SA told me now CGi about 1k for 1st service. 2nd about 1.3k

that is CnC ipoh

Dearest all sifus,
Not sure whether should ask here or not...
Currently, I'm driving a honda...an insight to be precise...
Am thinking of buying a used 2nd gen A class or a recond B class...
Are these 2 still considered as bullet-proof models (in terms of reliability of course)?
Shud be avoided or considered as a good start to upgrade to conti?
*
previous A class is not a good car. honestly. look bad and drive bad.
B class yes. B200 is good.

reliable? most like other merc class. I'm assuming you want the boot space? B class is quite ideal but not for A class.
A class like puny gal car for city ride. not worth it if for me. better get Avanza or so rather than A class.

unker paul spot A250 at Menara TM. so they will launch A250 at least

maybe A200 along on the launching.

expected A250 will hit 250k+ if you say vw golf GTi R at 280k? hell i will choose A250 anytime

I can tell you for sure the VW SC is just a typical malaysian managed style - paying premium but getting shitty service.

it will be very interesting to see how they price this as i look at it as MB trying to penetrate into the hot hatchback market for youngsters.

I am keeping my eye on this - if the A200 can be priced below 200k it will be very interesting indeed.
*
hmm.gif

mostly it would.

guess is around 180-190k

30k extra for golf Tsi, would u choose it? well, subjective. nowadays 180k+ can buy lotsa car.

i am driving mk6 tsi - it is a wonderful car to drive so much so that i kept thinking should i keep it - no prize for guessing why i am considering to let go.

it really depends on how the car drives - 190k i might even look at golf gti already so no answer for now biggrin.gif
*
that y i say depend. some think no worth to get a hot hatch @ 180-200k such like me.
if tat price, i confirm go for VW passat / MB 180 (last year discount model) and so. more practical usage.

QUOTE(blu3 @ Mar 17 2013, 04:59 PM)
A200 if sell below 200k Definately is a good call, but I doubt that, because 180 will be selling much cheaper.
*
last call. for MB. u notice they trying to sell car below their previous price. maybe due to market?

Ha..ha...I personally not a fan of cla. To me it's cut and paste! I prefer the A class though! GLK is also under my radar. Not sure MBM is launching this model.
*
yes,

A and CLA same platform
GLK and C class is same platform.

to remind you GLK might be around 330-380k range. if you could get at the price? you can buy e class liao....... not my fav also biggrin.gif
