What do you mean by quarterly servicing?

 

there is 3 kind of servicing, 

 

Every 1 year/15k - $300+

Every  2 years/30k - $800+

Every 3 years/60k - i not sure.

 

My car is currently 1 year, did my 1st service. if i am not wrong, the $3k service credit can cover at least 3 years.

 

 

What I mean is the 3 monthly servicing.

 

Each servicing job cost SGD$800 or there about.

So every year would be 4x $800 = $3200, which means that within the 1st year, the $3K service credit not enuf liao.

Bro,

 

Dun get the sunroof. it looks nice but imo not very good for everyday usage. when the sunroof/moonroof is closed, it is only covered by 1 cloth. imagine sunlight/heat will still come into your car after you close everything. it will be hot and you can kinda see thru the "cloth". it is not that kind of hard or solid cover.

Bros, believe it or not, the lower COE for cat B had made the CLA 200 is cheaper than the CLA 180. After all the disc and OT, the pricing of the 200 is lower and more worthwhile to buy.

 

Was looking for a dream ride and finally decided and committed to buy CLA200 from AD. :a-happy: Actually wanted the FULL works with AMG body kit (with higher pricing), but was not available for the package deal.

 

Can some kind bro advise on these, TIA.

 

1) Would like chrome rims, but standard eqpt is only greyish metal. Anyone knows and had done after market chrome of the OEM rims? Is it worth to keep the rims or to change to another set? I like the chrome ones which are easy to maintain.

2) After market AMG kit. Will this void the warranty from AD? How much does it cost (note AD original quote for AMG kit is add $10K, but no add-ons for this package deal).

 

Thanks for any advise.

Yea.. heard the same thing. I've been looking at the CLA for awhile now, will probably buy this week or after the next COE round. I'm not sure what the best decision is, although the CLA200 seems like a good buy now... even after the 50% premium by c&c.

 

I originally thought the CLA180 is more worth it, as the CLA180 & the CLA200 are the exact same car, just that the 180's software in the ECU limits the power of the car to fit into Cat A. Meaning, all you need to do to turn the 180 into the 200 is to bring it to a workshop for ECU reflashing which will cost a few hundred and an hour at most.

Woah bro, good memory. [thumbsup]

 

Initially yes, but after looking at the price come down a bit, thot don't need to go thru the many procedures and save some trouble. also the car warranty thingy maybe tricky, so opted for the easy way out. Pay the AD and take a load of the mind.

Is that legit? Take to work shop and tune the ECU to 156hp? Rem that you had paid for it in cat A, now mod it to cat B is this allowed? Will the workshop dare to do this sort of thing?

 

Kind of a loop hole .... hehehe

I think C&C can check whether standalone tune (reflashed) or piggyback is installed?

 

BMW not so niao on this. I always plug out my p&p piggyback when i go back for servicing.

Nothing really wasted actually. I see alot of new cars even reg like in 2015 for sale too..

 

How come ah?

 

Backside itchy like me also meh?

 

Other than backside itchy, you need to have loads of moolas to throw away like that. [thumbsup]  If not, then likely it could because of a major accident and want to get rid of the car fast.... kekeke.

 

Knowing that the 1st 3 years or so, the lost $$$ is larger than the subsequent 7 years.
