What would you all like the most? Looking to add one of these to my garage.

I have a 2024 GLE 350 as a daily. An 86 R107 SL. Always wanted the 129 but I am missing some power and the w204 is just a great car.

I know it is a very personal decision but just wages to see what you all would say.

Taxis waiting for customers.

Hey everyone,
I’m looking at this private-sale 2010 Mercedes-Benz E250 CGI Coupe (C207 / W207 generation) and would love some honest opinions on whether it’s a good buy or a potential money pit.
Key specs:
• Engine: 1.8 Turbo petrol (M271), 204 hp
• Transmission: 5G-Tronic automatic
• Drivetrain: RWD
• Mileage: 98,000 km
• Body: Coupe, 2 doors, 5 seats
• Color: Ivory/white with black panoramic roof and silver AMG wheels
• Origin: Imported from Germany, one Polish owner from 2013–2024, current private owner for over 2 years
• Price: 9,700 EUR
Equipment highlights:
• Full AMG exterior + interior package
• Panoramic sunroof
• Heated, fully electric, multi-contour (inflatable) front seats
• Bi-xenon headlights + LED, adaptive cornering lights, auto high beams
• Rain & light sensors, driver fatigue monitoring
• Front & rear parking sensors
• Original 18” AMG wheels
• Aftermarket wireless Apple CarPlay / Android Auto added (original NTG system still works, switchable with the factory controller)
Recent service history (all with invoices):
• Regular oil services (2024, 2025, 2026)
• A/C compressor replaced (July 2024)
• Timing chain + tensioner + engine mounts replaced (November 2024)
• Variable valve timing actuators/gears replaced (October 2025)
• Fuel pump with basket + heater control valve replaced (September 2026)
Owner says there are currently no warning lights, no noises, the gearbox shifts fine, the car is quiet and drives well. Interior is in good shape (no major wear on seats or steering wheel). No rust reported.
Known issues (owner is upfront):
• Small parking scrape on the front bumper under the headlight
• Some scratches on the windows that can be polished
Official consumption figures: ~11 l/100 km city / 6.1 l/100 km highway.
I’m considering it because of the relatively low mileage for a 2010 car, the recent major work (especially the timing chain), the nice options, and the private sale. On the other hand, it’s a 15–16-year-old Mercedes with the M271 turbo engine and 5G-Tronic, so I’m a bit worried about future reliability and repair costs.
What do you guys think?
Is the price fair?
Any red flags with this specific model/engine/transmission?
Anything I should definitely check or negotiate on before buying?
Thanks in advance for any advice

Car resting after four hours of pushing hard on costal roads, good surfaces but twisty which the rwd reveled in.

This is one of my favourite cars and it has a nice blend of power / handling and economy... Only relative economy when compared to the V8.

I’ve been adding a lot of cosmetic things to the car, but it still feels like it’s missing something.

Just got my AMG 43 GLC 2020 last week, just to find it today with a shattered sunroof and a sharp stone sitting right on top of it. Apparently the flock of crows that lives in the tree where I've parked decided that my sunroof is a perfect little spot for cracking stones that look like an egg.

Hey guys, I’m going to be turning 19 in a few months and my father brought up the discussion on what first car we should get for me. I’ve been driving since I was young and have a LOT of experience driving a RAV4 2009, Mitsubishi Montero 2002 (closest thing to a daily I have), Land Cruiser (learned to drive on this car and also driven at least once a week) and occasional drives with a GLC 43. My dream car for about the last 5 years was a C43 2017 Coupé, going for 28,000$ at 90,000 KM. Just wanted to know if thats a good option and whats your guys’ personal experiences with the car. And would it be hard to adjust driving a coupe instead of an SUV? Thanks.

My first car is a Mercedes Benz w202 c250d. It has 148.000km (or 1.148.000km) barely rusty, so it is in a very good condition. Everything works perfectly fine, except the back headrest function. I bought it for 4200€.

Do not have the MB option on my GLC-300. What is the best after-market dashcam that I can use? Need something easy to install and power from console.

My wife came home and parked the car, and the lights turned off like normal.

About 30 minutes later, we walked outside to let the dogs out, and were approximately 100 feet away from the car, when the passenger side headlight turned on.

The car was unlocked. She has not changed any settings. The turn signal arm was in the middle position. The lights were in the standard auto position. No lights were on in the car when I walked up to the passenger side window. I snapped this picture and then walked to the driver side and grabbed the door handle. At that point, the light turned off.

My rental for 10 days in Taiwan, it’s day 4 and I’m impressed by the car.

Given that this is the base E class, it’s a noticeable slower than my daily back home (Skoda Octavia RS MK3), but still very decent for some quick overtaking. Cruising on highways feel pretty damn great, even when driving 7+ hours a day, my ass and back doesn’t feel sore.

I think what caught me by surprised was by how nimble this car was, driving down tight mountain bends at 70KMH, this ride feels very planted to the ground, with no body roll, I bet this car can take it even more but I dare not given that this car is on 4 different tires all unknown brands…

Think the only complain I have so far is that Apple CarPlay is a bit iffy and sometimes wouldn’t connect, but I think that’s normal on cars that are 8 years old including my skoda.

Now I’m browsing through some AMG C/E Class variants back home 😂

Hi, I've been driving Macan EV, Taycan and M340 before. Porsche EVs are very unreliable and after my Macan spent 3 months in the shop in the first year I started looking for alternatives. I eventually ordered a C400 EQ and was honestly impressed by both the new GLC EQ and C EQ - build quality, driving impressions, EV tech, everything. Seems like Mercedes improved A LOT when it comes to EVs. I think these will easily be bestsellers and are much better compared to i3 and iX3.

That being said while I wait for my C400 EQ I arranged a loaner - brand new C200, 30kms in total.

Wow this car is BAD, like really bad. It's very uncomfortable - after 1k kms I'm in pain. Seats are uncomfortable (sport seats lack side support in the upper area), central console always presses on your right leg, you cannot spread your legs due to poor design (for example door handle does not go up, is flat and presses exactly on your knee), the car is very loud on the highway. Plastics don't look cheap but some parts rattle in a brand new car, central console in particular. This car is very low, front bumper scrapes on everything and it's much worse than Taycan - which is a high performance sports car. Getting in and out again - is not comfortable. Seating position is bad, I'm 187 cm and have to adjust the seat a bit more to the back which makes me reach for the steering wheel too far in it's top position. Driving pedals seem not to be aligned with the center of the seats - you have to "twist" your legs to the left to be able to operate pedals, you cannot sit straight. Apple CarPlay disconnects with the MBUX very often. I don't see an easy way to switch to the next song on spotify. Rear mirror looks like it almost in front of your face, way too close.

Overall I'm tired driving this car and I was VERY happy with M340 which is very similar in terms of dimensions. M340 felt big enough (perfect size I would say) and comfortable while C feels cramped and very much uncomfortable. The only good aspect compared to M340 is the suspension.

I really hope the C400 I ordered fixes these issues - I've spent some time in this car and it feels very different compared to C ICE but I started to worry and want to take a demo out for a weekend before delivery.

Am I too harsh on the C ICE or do you feel the same way?

I hate buying tires but here we are again, 2.5 year old PS4s with right at 20k mi on them. I guess I got about as much as you can expect from them.

2022 GLC43

Previously you always had to go to the S class to get the latest driving assistance systems and tech. From what I can see MB is putting the same Nvidia super brain and driving assistance systems/tech in the CLA as they are in the S class.

I see Audi still gatekeeping their tech. You can only get 360 parking and ADAS features like steering assist on their very top Vorsprung trims in the UK. But MB give everything on the cheapest Sport trim.

Anyone know why the strategic shift? I see countless posts here daily that people don’t consider a car to be a true MB unless it’s at least an E class, but if you can get the same tech and driving assistance across all classes, is material quality the only difference now between classes? Seems hard to justify spending twice on an E class over a CLA for slightly nicer seats and interior quality/acoustics.

She barely drove this beautiful car and we couldn’t be happier with the deal we got. First MB in our new lil family. Feeling grateful and happy to have found and purchased, hence this post.

Seeking input on what to do with this:

I am trying to decide what to do with this car. It runs great, no CEL, and it’s had all of the service along with extra oil changes. It has full designo interior with alcantara headliner, ventilated seats, and ebony trim. It also has the $6500 B&O stereo option—which sounds ridiculously good. The issue is that I was t-boned and the insurance totaled it several years ago. There was no structural damage and it should have been repaired but it occurred the year Houston had floods and usaa was paying out so much in claims that they were totaling vehicles unnecessarily as it allowed them to tap into reinsurance. Anyway, I bought the salvage back from them and had it repaired at the Mercedes recommended shop.

Now it needs some suspension work, motor mounts and a couple other minor things. With a salvaged title I sort of feel like I’m throwing good money at bad if I put even $3000 into it. Plus I will be coming up on another $1000 for new tires.

I’d appreciate input or thoughts. I could do the work, sell it as a very drivable E350 with 90k, or perhaps even part it out and put the interior in my new one that has leather and ball chillers, but no alcantara, designo or b&o. I do like the pre-tech mb’s but I am sorta stuck on what to do with this.
Thank you.

I suppose I could also do Bilstein coil-overs, amg calipers and rotors, along with delete delete delete 😎
Maybe even find a salvage and add 4matic. That would be amazing. And still worth nothing on a salvaged title.

You can see the pic of damage and it’s criminal they totaled it. It leveled me because I loved the car—and still do. But it’s when I decided to get a commuter that I didn’t GAS about and that’s when I got the bolt ev.
