un1ver5e 1st Gear July 16, 2018 Share July 16, 2018 (edited) Why get the GLA now though? With the upcoming new A class with the MBUX, the new GLA is probably going to be announced by the end of the year. https://www.motor1.com/news/250935/mercedes-gla-class-spy-video/ Edited July 16, 2018 by un1ver5e ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vratenza Supersonic July 16, 2018 Share July 16, 2018 Ok, there is coe rebate to cushion for about 12k drop in the next 12 biddings. That to me means that if COE drops to 18k, C&C earns 12k more. Of course if the COE goes the other way, C&C have to make less profit to push the car out to you. Don't get me wrong, I myself waited for 7mths for my GLC from C&C, but the COE and whole car price is only packaged in about 3 months before it is due for delivery. C&C bidded for my COE in the next 2-3 biddings and I was lucky to have locked the price in when the COE was lower than what C&C successfully bidded for my COE. If C&C wants to lock in the price of your new car 6mth ahead, they should lock in your trade-in car price 6mth ahead to be fair. On 7/16/2018 at 3:57 PM, BobbyTan_74287 said: COE rebate is S$18,000. Any price below S$18,000, C&C will give further discount. But that is very unlikely. Used car trade in value goes with COE too. If COE low, I supposed the car trade in value will be low. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, they said the trade-in price of my car will be based on Jan 2019. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astawreck Neutral Newbie July 24, 2018 Share July 24, 2018 Hi guys. I’m considering between the CLA180 or GLA180, I currently drive a Tucson. Those who owns a CLA or GLA, how’s the experience? Is it worth the money? Comfort etc Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khng8 4th Gear July 24, 2018 Share July 24, 2018 CLA on RFT - road noise in cabin is obvious. Otherwise ride is good and car is planted when going round corners. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Khng8 4th Gear July 24, 2018 Share July 24, 2018 Would second that. Meaning go try the CLA200 or GLA200. The180 lacks power. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
