Renegade Neutral Newbie May 17, 2002 Share May 17, 2002 (edited) In S'pore alone, once in a while, it may come in handy - but how lost can you really get ? And, more importantly, don't know how much the gadget costs, but if options are piled on this way, especially if they're not very useful, it may just end up negating whatever savings that would have come with going for the PI route.

Madarmour Neutral Newbie May 17, 2002 Share May 17, 2002 Got GPS but no software also no use! Instead of SG map, Frankfurt map come out instead! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evo6_23 Neutral Newbie May 17, 2002 Share May 17, 2002 (edited) spoke to my fren yest... he said it depends on the importer... when new cars come out from germany they go direct to uk first... then from there it gets exported... sometimes car dealers may even use the car for a few months b4 exporting... so depends on ur luck i guess... wrt warranty... he said the importer will have their own workshops tt u have to go to for servicing... warranty is 1 year... c&c is 3 years... and for parts tt are faulty u have to bear the costs of bringing in the parts from germany if they dun have it in their workshop... but maybe u can buy from c&c instead...? another thing is in some PI versions the front passenger's seat doesn't come with memory...

Yeah, or maybe no English language pack....after all, I don't think Mercs run Windows o/s.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke721 Neutral Newbie May 17, 2002 Author Share May 17, 2002 The GPS system would roughly cost between $4 - $5k (includes installation) - but like what you said, these would all add up to expenses which could equate to buying straight from the distributor in the first place Really grateful for the advice Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke721 Neutral Newbie May 17, 2002 Author Share May 17, 2002 While my 'baby' was being serviced yesterday, i saw a E200 in the workshop and spoke to my mec about it - according to him, the comp in the E200 got busted, and he had to make an indent to get the new comp - costs about $7k without installation - thereafter gotta bring to C & C to program (which would cost some more $$) - according to my mec again, C & C would most probably charge between $12 - $15k for the comp... Think i need to get my old man to visit this site to check out the comments on PI Mercs... BTW, thanks for the advice. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
