Told the mrs we need to get her convertible in for a service, hasn't been into the dealership since early 2015. The service tech checked the mileage, 6,200kms. LOL they double check since it's a '13, yep, 6,200kms and 4 years old. Needless to say besides oil and oil filter, everything is in good order, but we still need to change brake fluid. $800cdn for a service, and I supplied the engine oil too😄

LOL!!! That is hysterical. The look on the MB service tech's face must have been priceless.
So you only drive it less than a thousand miles a year? I'm guessing you have a few other cars and this one spends most of its time parked in the garage. So actually your rough day at the dealership's service center wasn't that bad. When you consider the car hasn't been serviced for two years, that $800cdn is damn cheap by MB standards.
Three pointer center court, the convertible is only driven when we are down in southern BC. It's a great machine, ordered it without distronic, or lane assist, any of the nannies just so I can run curves without distraction. When I'm allowed that is😂

Wow you guys hardly do any mileage at all! Mine (13) has done almost 80k
As for my case, this car is one of 5 cars we have and not the primary car. It's since switched in and has become our daily driver two months ago however.
What has your experience been for the 80k miles, any serious issues or lingering problems which may help fellow owners?
