  1. Hi, both trunk lights(boot) lights of my W204 c180k are not working(one on the right side of boot and the other on the trunk lid). Could some experience hands advise how should I troubleshoot from here? And where is the fuse location of the trunk lights? Thanks in advance.
  2. Wah I don't believe the crowd man, when I was at the C&C showroom today. Packed like crazy! Everybody also want to test drive ... long queue. All tables and huddle rooms fully occupied! At $153K for an entry level C-Class sedan, it's actually a very attractive proposition. At that price, Audi has only got the A3 1.4 and A1. But hatchbacks nia. BMW only the 116i - hatch back also. Now got no 316i sedan liao. VW got Golf 1.4 and Scirocco - again, both hatchbacks. Nothing wrong with hatchbacks, but I suppose the general car-buying public in Singapore still prefer sedans hor. So, will we continue to see Merc at pole position in the sales figures for March and 2Q 2012?

  4. Up to 70% of C-Class sold in 2011 by C&C are C180Ks. http://motoring.asiaone.com/Motoring/News/...321-334791.html Premium brands pick up speed and new buyers in Cat A By Samuel Ee The luxury brands are attracting new customers as they steadily gain market share in the Category A COE segment, with Mercedes-Benz being the most successful so far. A Cat A certificate of entitlement is used to register a car with an engine capacity 1,600cc and below, and costs less than a Cat B COE, which is for cars above 1,600cc. One reason is because Cat A models are smaller and traditionally considered bread-and-butter models. But not anymore. With European manufacturers downsizing their engines to reduce fuel consumption and exhaust emissions, there are now more and more premium models with 1.6-litre engines. One of them is the Mercedes-Benz C180 Kompressor, with a 1,597cc supercharged engine and five- speed automatic transmission. This is not to be mistaken with the C180 CGI BlueEfficiency, which has a 1.8-litre turbocharged engine mated to a seven- speed auto. Last year, the C180 K accounted for 68.6 per cent of the total 1,351 units of C-Class cars sold here. One important advantage it has is affordability - at $177,888 (with COE), the C180 K is currently $20,000 less than the C180 CGI mainly because of the COE premium. 'Of course the OMV is lower,' said a dealer for a competitor, referring to the open market value. 'But it is mostly the gap between the Cat A and Cat B premiums that gives the C180 K its price advantage.' The Cat A COE premium is currently at $56,552, while Cat B is at $79,304. The dealer added that this price advantage has also resulted in conquest customers for the brand with the three-pointed star. 'The C180 has attracted many new customers who used to drive two-litre Japanese cars because both now cost about the same,' he explained. Another German luxury marque which is quietly carving out a niche in Cat A is BMW with its 1 Series five-door hatchback. 'With the launch of the new BMW 1 Series last November, the COE Category A has become a relevant segment to BMW,' said BMW Group Asia managing director Neil Fiorentinos, referring to the 118i and 116i's four-cylinder 1.6-litre TwinPower Turbo petrol engine. He added that during the 1990s, BMW had a 3 Series with a 1.6-litre engine in the form of a saloon and compact - the 316i. With the new 3 Series, the BMW 335i and 328i have been launched and the 320i with its 2.0-litre turbocharged engine is due here in the second half of 2012. But according to Mr Fiorentinos, 'there is no confirmation of other model variants at this point in time'. However, at BMW- owned Mini, all the models from the iconic brand are in Cat A. Mr Fiorentinos said: 'Given the good response to the new BMW 1 Series and the strong trend of Mini, the Cat A segment already plays an important part in BMW Group Asia's product portfolio and we foresee it will continue to do so in the future.' Over at Volvo, Cat A sales now comprise an average 40 per cent of sales since the first Cat A model was launched in May last year, said general manager Victor Kwan. Volvo has three Cat A models - the S60 T4, S80 T4, and V60 T4 - and Mr Kwan said most customers are new to the Swedish brand. 'The profile of buyers for the S60 and S80 is somewhat different, but the majority of them are new to the Volvo brand,' he explained, adding that about 30 per cent are from other Continental makes, including premium and mid-tier continental brands, 40 per cent from Japanese makes, and the balance being first- time buyers.

  10. Hi All, Saw an ad in papers by PI offering the previous model E200 (W211) for $148k, got quite some colors/units, maybe clearing remaining stock. I know many fall for the new E-class ... but looking at the price factor, it's on par (if not cheaper) with the C180 from C&C ($150k plus?) ... So which is a better choice in your opinion ... I bet E200 is surely a more complete car than C180, but the "PI" fear exist ...
  11. Ok guys, I know that this topic has been discussed at length and I know what is the general consensus is like. But what I'm going to present here is more 'down to the wire', ie. prices and packages offered. 1st, I would like to cast my opinions on both of these cars. Some may beg to differ but all comments will be treated with respect. Personally already have a preference, but after looking and feeling both cars, the race is blown wide open. Now it almost depends on which brand gives me a better offer. C180K BE Pros: - Better overall retail package - Lower road tax - RWD is just better(Really.) - Additional boot lip spoiler - 17" multi spoke rims Cons: - Ah Pek image - Less interior equipment - Slightly more road and engine noise - One year older than A4 A4 1.8T Attraction Pros: - Impressive interior equipment - Better looking inside out - More powerful and refined - More features Cons: - Stiff pricing and unattractive retail package - Dull handling(Drive select? I'm not so sure... The electro steering doesn't cut the mustard. Really.) - Ugly rims - FWD - Just an expensive VW? Similiarities: - Ride in comfort or sport mode almost the same, less the handling and steering feel. - Both offer 17"rims - Warranty package
