What is the price for E200 now? A friend told me that it is just around RM300K. I thought it is about RM365K.

I saw an ads in Motor Trader mag recently. This company does update the GPS of recon Benz as well as converting the language to English. Perhaps you can go to bookstore to browse it.

The Eco starts stop is a nuisance. I have developed the habit of switching it off every time I start my car. It's design to on by default .

I am not the only one. The ECO mode is complete crap especially for our weather condition. Secondly, the jerk. When I tested the A200, I immediately switch it off the moment before I drive it.


The A class interior definitely better than the 'everything square' Golf. tongue.gif I didn't know that the 3 door GTi is so bare basic shocking.gif

point A and B is the key different the rest are cosmetic with a batch of sport introduction. and you guys should see A45 AMG (variant 1) coming in by september or october, but unfortunately for the first badge only 20 unit have been order and all sold out.
A250 does feel different if compare to A200 but if you are not a fan of sport tuning you might find the ride is a little bit stiff and hard less comfort  compare to A200.
*
I did not manage to test drive A250. The A200 ride is already stiff. I was quite surprised by it as I thought it would be towards comfortable ride. If the A250 is even stiffer, I can only imagine how bumpy it could get.

For better performance and handling, I don't mind it is stiff... smile.gif

It is overly stiff for this small car. If it is sports series, I can understand the rationale for the stiff suspension.

With the condition of our road, it is quite an uncomfortable ride. Perhaps it is just me.

Having said that I do not mind to have a A250 as a joyride hot hatch.

anybody knows how much CLA will cost when it arrives next year? From somewhere I read its 280k! Which is ALOT...I understand that CLA is supposed to be cheaper than C class but because C class is CKD it is possible that the price will be higher in malaysia. But then, the A200 is 200k and I don't expect the CLA200 to be more than 240k...280k is too much
*
AFAIK, there is no definite price structure yet. It is very likely that it costs more than the current CKD W204. The CLA looks more handsome than the W204 and that should appeal more younger buyers to MB.

For now, I am hoping to see some spy shots of W205 as it is set to replace W204 next year.

NZ Wheels. Depends on what colour u want. I want white so have to wait

Seems like white colour is the most popular colour for most of the cars now.

Btw, I thought A45 have to wait for more than a year as the allocation for 2013 and 2014 is being snapped up.

My bad. I was referring to pgsiemkia's post as he mentioned that it took 3 months to deliver A45.

Hello folks. i just got the car for test drive for 2 weeks before deciding on purchase. something i noticed and i dunno whether this is normal on merc

1) when the car is idling...the steering judders/vibrate a little....( is this normal ? )

2) on high speed (100km + ) i hear a humming sound like its coming from the tyre or engine... i checked all the tyres and they are new....hmn...
So far...pleasant experience...just dunno if the owner wanna let go at 115-120K or not
*
1) I doubt it's normal. Mine doesn't. My friend's R171 also doesn't judder. It probably caused steering bush.

2) the humming could be due to tyres or worn out bearing.
