it is fun to romp on loaners though.......
what an odd thing to malfunction; the stat I mean.....
obviously a warranty thing......but what would it have cost otherwise?

hype,
the GLK is in my opinion is so sporty!, and the 350 motor feels so alive!
I really enjoyed the car honestly.

16k on my E350, thermostat was covered fully, and got an excellent car was also when i picked it up.

+1 on the GLK. An amazingly solid vehicle. I read somewhere that we may be getting diesel version using the 2.1 liter CDI engine. That would be one sweet little SUV.

Too bad they look like dog poop ran over a couple of times. The facelift with its weird melty front end mated onto the original extremely boxy and angular mini SUV is even worse. I'm sure it's fun to beat around though, and absolutely solid indeed. The facelift has brought the interior up to acceptability though, as its Sister C-Class's did as well for it.
