Surprise gift from Mercedes
I bought a 2003 240C 4Matic in June. Today I received a package from Mercedes Benz. Inside was a free black 100% lambswool car blanket from Faribault Mills!
Thank you Mercedes Benz.

I got mine from Penske, too. Should I look for something in my mailbox soon?
By the way, how do you two think of Penske's services?

damnit...
I got mine from Laguna Nigel and I never received anything. I think that it totally depends on who your sales person was. I was at MB San Diego the other day and a sales rep was just walking around the MB store with a client who just bought a car and he said to him, "grab anything you need." I was like...wow...
on a side note, he was one of the highest volume salesman there, but he did make his clients feel like a MB customer!

My gift car blanket was from Mercedes not from my dealer. The card enclosed with the gift was from Paul Juron, General Manage, Customer Assistance Center.
I have signed up with Mercedes Benz on their internet site and I also filled out a questionnaire from Mercedes that I received in the mail. I wonder if one of those things triggered the gift or whether they are sending them out to all customers.

Actually at penske, everytime you get your car serviced... they want you to answer 100% satisfactory on the survey and if you can't then they want you to call them and they'll give you a gift certficate good towards parts...

I didn't receive anything either, from MB or the dealer.
I didn't spend enough money at the dealer. When I picked up the car, the dealer was delivering a AMG. Those people got a car full of balloons, a diecast of an old Mercedes with Gull wing doors and a few aother little goodies I can't remember.
Another time I was picking the car up from service, they were delivering a top of the line S Class. That guy also got a set of balloons, watch, pen set.
I guess with my dealer you have to buy a AMG or higher to at least get a set of balloons.
So far I am not very impressed with MB dealer. Before the BM I had Cadillacs from various dealers and they all treated be better than BM. It didn't matter if I had DeVille or a Seville.

I have not received anything, I think every car I have ever had I would get gift-certificate, at Amazon, or Borders, or something like that for test driving new car, I have received nothing from Mercedes.My car has been almost trouble free, but the small problems I have had are never fixed in the first visit, that makes there service very average
