Worth just updating for any UK based people. My dealer still cannot allocate a HUD to my car nor any car they have on their order books. He really doesn't know why but best guess is probably that the unit is handed for RH drive and still isn't available because Mercedes just aren't telling them anything. I'm currently hoping that I will still get the unit put on before it gets built but I'm not holding by breath!

Best of luck to you. I honestly am surprised they were able to add it to my build for Aug. production. I feel very lucky.

I can basically figure out exactly what my build will cost now before the dealer even tells me, so thank you!

So we just got a call from the dealership saying that Cars for Australia (RHD) built in May / June WILL receive HUD! For the record, they were only willing to compensate aud$1000 (USD$710) if the car showed up without HUD. Delivery is in July, which is on schedule.

My dealer tried to allocate a HUD again yesterday (and this morning). Still nothing in the UK but surely if you guys are now getting a HUD (RHD) UK purchasers will? Again, I'm not holding my breath!

Thanks PorGT3. So does that mean July build won't include the HUD or they just can't confirm yet? I know they said Australia wide by the sound of it, but probably still worth asking the dealer about this right?

jHillman, who gives his location as Dallas, seems to have a HUD allocated to his car now.

Mine is the AMG C63S coupe, which will be built in Germany, delivered to Dallas. Can't speak to the US built cars.
