Just seen that email also. Will be surprised if any of it comes to the W205.
The tone of the email was more "our lawyers want you to agree to the new T&C's" than making any promises what functionality might be released..

Caveat: Most of this will probably be market specific.

The Remote Parking Pilot. Parking by smartphone with the Remote Parking Pilot.
The Remote Parking Pilot provides a simple means of steering your vehicle from outside with your smartphone. How it works: You scan the parking space as you drive by, then get out of the vehicle and steer it into the space from outside. "Key parking" and the Remote Parking Pilot make child's play of any parking space, however tight. The optional items 360-degree camera, automatic transmission and KEYLESS-GO are required for this service. Download the corresponding app from your App Store and activate the service via the Mercedes me portal.

I expected at least concierge as that would take hardly any implementation at all.

Having called MB it seems even this won't be coming to the C any time soon

Missing a trick there. BMW have had this for many years.

I'll pass on the remote parking pilot. With my luck a call will come through, I panic and slam the car into the wall.

I'm just waiting for the news story of the two year old who's driven daddy's 7 series down the road after snatching the iphone to play "swirl the fiinger" .
