If there was ONE thing you change with your W204, what would it be?

Here's one!
I wish the W204 were bigger. The more and more I drive the car, I just wish it was wider/longer. I think it would improve vehicle comfort quite a bit as well. I was surprised to see that it's slightly smaller than a Lexus IS too (largely the same size). The W204 looks pretty big but it's actually not that big of a car.

You can buy it OEM and replace the handle. It is an Euro option.

Don't like the new interior.
If I could do it all over again, I would buy the older E class (not the new one, but the one from 2014-2016).
I like my cars fully loaded - and it's hard to find one that has all the spec I want since they are all used.
I'm really struggling to find a new car that I love (and that is also reliable).

ANNUAL replacement? If that is true that must be something you are doing to the seat. I could see if your seat ripped or split at the seam one time, but for it to need to be replaced yearly that can't be a Mercedes issue, otherwise there would be tons of posts on here daily about that.

My MB Tex looks brand new on my C. My GL had MB Tex . I had it for 8 years. It looked perfect when I traded it in for my GLC.

MB Tex is the de facto seat surface used in the majority of Mercedes Benzes in Europe that are cabs.
If there is a significant wear issue requiring annual replacement, well, that'd be common knowledge.
As others have said, keep your d*ck off of the seat and stop jacking it while you're on the seat - maybe THE SEAT will last longer

Annual replacement?! That isn't normal. Like others have said...you're doing something wrong. The MB Tex in my almost 9 year old C300 looks brand new. I do wish the MB Tex is more supple to imitate real leather better, but it does seem like it will last awhile. I wonder if color influences how quickly the material will degrade? My sister had a black MB Tex C300, and the driver's seat started to have tears in the bottom bolster near the seam after 5 or 6 years. She didn't take care of her car too well, and it parked outside in the hot sun quite often with no tint.

That is a pet peeve of mine on most cars today. Hard to find a mid-size car where you can comfortably fit one set, let alone two, without having to fold one of the seats down. You would think that cars like BMW, Audi and Mercedes would take into consideration that a portion of their customer base would golf and figure out a way to lay out trunk space without having to fold down one of the seats. I can barely fit my clubs in diagonally in my car. And, no, I don't store my d*ck in there to take up all the room.

I love how this thread turned into one talking about d*cks.
Pics anyone?!
On the topic of golf bags, I don't see how one can fit in two sets given how low our cars are (wheel arches and all). Either that or you'd have to have a hell of a wide car.

I've gotten two sets in a number of times. You have to put them in at an angle and they barely fit, but it can be done. That includes the heads, the shafts and the *****. You have to kind of squeeze them in...............
