This one delaer in Georgia, which has received "Mercedes-Benz Best of the Best Dealer Recognition Award" last two years, gives out loaners to almost every customers if jobs take more than two hours.
Even I dropped my car earlier this week only for front windshield replacement and interior detail, they still gave me loaner. Initially, I told them it is not necessary but SA said the dealer needs to make sure my new windshiled dried all the way so I will be safe on the road so leave my car overnight and take a loaner. What a jackpot!
Got 2007 C230 Sport in Silver with approximately 15,000 miles clocking. Loved it very much, and now even I'm thinking about a decent condition W203.
Probably, will stop by this section more often from now on.

WTF, I get MB's all the time at MB of Laguna Niguel. My kids loves it when I used to take her SLK230 there because they can't do anything right there, so an simple repair takes multiple visits and my kid loved the loaners, stylin in H.S.

I remember one of the last loaners I got had 56mi on it. I believe it was the 2nd to last time [in the serires of 7 services in 45days]. I was so pissed I had to take my car back in... I waited and waited. I got the loaner and redlined every gear into 5th, multiple times. fishtailed on the freeway on ramp and kept down shifting from 7th [weird saying that] to 4th. Oh that car was surely abused. Speed bumps? What are those?!
Normally, I'm VERY good with my car and I dont condone being an idiot in a loaner or another vehicle, but 6 times of 'servicing' inside less than a month and a half, I think we'd all be pissed.

Got the c-class loaner too. I am very impressed. The wife is trying to pry the keys from me. "Sorry honey they have my license info not yours. Means only I drive it." It is still small to me though, I'm 6'2". Interestingly it feels smaller interior wise than my 00 Subaru Impreza. Still it is really nice in silver. I know the haters will be talking about me at work tomorrow. nevermind that we all make about the same salary. sheesh.
