    Off to Mercedes tomorrow after speaking with the salesman on the phone earlier about a CLA 200 executive. Explained that I was a bit gutted about the premium plus not being in the scheme as it improves the look of the car, and he said they’d be able to add a night pack with blacks out the chrome, tints the windows and upgrades the wheels to the black 19″ AMG ones on the Prem plus. He’s sorting a price out and will let me know when I’m down there tomorrow, but he thinks it’ll be around £800/1000. And they have cars available within two weeks.

    Interesting he said that. I just happened to note the terms on their MB .pdf price list as at the bottom in small print it says this:- Standard Metallic Paint only, offer does not include solid or manufaktur paint. Standard car only, factory fitted options cannot be added. Adaptions can only be fitted by a Motability approved insta ller as part of the Motability application, all Motability vehicles are excluded from MBUK campaign support and personalised offers. Selected stock only. Applicable for orders with a confirmed sellable commission number between 03/06/2024 – 30/06/2024. I got the impression from that no options were available for MB cars though I really hope I’m wrong.

     

    He said they’d do it in house at the dealership, so it’s not factory fitted as such, but fitted by them when they get the car.

    I’ll find out more info tomorrow, but I do remember when I had a Merc before that I had wanted the black AMG alloy wheels and the dealership said they could change them when the car arrived, but I ended up happy with the ones that originally came with the car.
