We both took a C-Class at the same time, it seems. My temporary registration was also 11/23... November 2023! 😃 I wanted a C300d, but my dealer, Coastal Star Trivandrum, told me the last one had been sold out in Cochin. So it was you! 😁 I settled for a C220d in white. It's doing fine. I miss the Burmester 3D, but the performance is good enough for me-not as bad as I expected.

@@akksakku5733 Yup, I bought on Nov 30th!! Mine was the last one and how I got it is also a long story, may be for another video to make 😅 I literally had to fight with Benz to get this one. My case actually was reported to Benz India coz some goof-ups happened in my case. I was initially looking for C220d only but then the added advantages were justifying the 5 lac extra so i went with this

I use wireless android auto as well but there are times when it just doesn't connect (very irritating at times!!) At times I had to use the Merceds maps only. Wired one is better as battery of phone doesn't drain and it is stable. Sometimes the wireless connection goes even while driving the car when phone gets too hot. Planning to bring this issue up during service.

26:19 As per my Mercedes dealer, the rear dashcam is illegal in India. So, Mercedes stopped installing it in India. It's still available for purchase if you insist. I, too, fitted only the front cam in my C220d. I bought it for 70k.😢

Owner is very knowledgeable about cars , really surprised how passionate he has been about his vehicle. Respect for the doctor to have taken time to participate in this meet. I’d also taken a test drive of this model and was impressed overall by the quality & details . Interiors were epic and give a royal feel. Power is massive with some level of lag . Could have improved on the exhaust note while providing keyless entry & 360 cameras.

Why compare so much for mileage for a 70L vehicle 😉Between 10km and 20km mileage difference is only 5L for 1L km ride
@drkartiksurgeon7 ай бұрын
Well, it's all about the perspective!! Car which gives mileage of 10 will probably be a petrol so if you drive 1 lac kms in 5 years, you would end up spending about 6 lacs more, that is 10 thousand more per month. Put that 10k every month in an SIP, an index fund will do and a nominal rate of 10-12% can make you a corpus which you can definitely feel happy about 😅

That would we an overstatement I guess. I have been using this car for more than 6 months now. Definitely, the clearance is low and u need to be careful, but I have not faced any major issues on rough road, or bumps. Sedans have a lot of advantages: - Better handling - Better ride quality - Minimal body roll - Gorgeous looks and feel With new highways and better roads coming up, sedans will provide a much better driving thrill!! 😊
