I've had my car in 3 times over the past 2 years for warranty work and they gave me a brand new GLK the first 2 times and today they were out of MB's so they rented me a 2012 Toyota Matrix. Wow, what a piece of crap.

Just curious what your dealer gives you guys?

I got a C250... which was gutless to say the least. ps. I asked for an SL but my AMG service advisor was on holidays

Over the past 4 years with my E55 I've had..

2008-2012 C300 and C250's
2008 CLK 320
2012 E350

I primarily deal with House of Imports and Fletcher Jones. Never been given a GLK but I would like to try one out, they look pretty cool.

The Fletcher Jones dealer in Chicago told me they didn't have loaner cars on multiple occasions, but would give me a ride by shuttle. Needless to say I will not be back there again unless absolutely necessary.

Didn't buy my car at my local dealership so I don't think they'll be giving me a courtesy car.

Iv been get a b class for the past 5 years. Turrrible car. Goin for service thursday, hopefully its somthing nice.

From c250 to c300, but always C class. At least they are brand new 2012s.

they should have some AMG's for AMG owners, first come first serve, id book it in advance :P

B Class when bringing in the C63. The last time I brought my E36 M3 in to the shop (not the BMW dealership) where it is maintained for service after a track day, I drove home in a Ferrari 348

C250's, that's all they have, supposedly.

Standard car is a C250 (which I actually really like...no C63 sure but good throttle response from that tiny turbo for a standard a to b car) but with a little arm twisting I've gotten a CLS550 and one time had a Renntech SL550 for a long weekend. Loved that car, f'ng beautiful.

C250.....

Roswell

Ferrari as loaner? Now that's baller!! Did u request them to keep ur M3 for a week? Lol

Roswell

U r wrong to think this way. No matter where u purchased ur car, u should be able to get a loaner when it's available.

They gave me a c300. Not bad but it's no AMG

gthal

I'm a good customer and know the owners well as they maintain the track car. I only had it for a bit but it was still fun.

go.mouse

I had a C250 for a day, and it got passed by Civic's on the road all day long...

After some complaint, they gave me a R350 BT. That's like driving a mini-bus.

Roswell

Oh, on the side note I believe u have to be 21 & older to get a loaner.

Hey CoolBD, the dealer will still give you a loaner. I bought my car up in San Rafael and Smythe in SJ still gives me a GLK, C250 or C300.

emericr

I have had C300, C350, E350, GLK and ML350 and I did not buy the car at that dealer.
This posts obviously shows that dealers do not treat everyone the same.

melmanc55

New E350 less than 1k miles

CoolBDPhenom03

I don't think they do loaners at all given they have an Enterprise counter just inside of the service area.

SheryarYO

yeah my dealer had an enterprise counter as well so i didn't even bother asking them what i'd get...just assumed it would be some old toyota or something.

Fung63

loaners... that has been the story of my life over the past couple of months haha.

Ok so over the past 3 months I've received

2 GLKS (one was brand new)
1 C250
1 C300
1 C350
1 GL 320
1 E350 (recently due to accident)
1 BMW 535x lol... I got bored of the e class so I told them I wanted something else... they happened to have a 535

LFM_Vancouver

I think if you choose to spend a lot of money for a safe great performing car MB should respect that decision and give you a loaner car that is on par in at least the safety department. For regular service not such a concern but for a service issue that is THEIR fault they shouldn't give you a sub par tin can.
