Newbie here... need some tips
Hi all.... ok... now driving my first MB... I've owned about 10 BMW's in the last 12 years or so... Mostly M cars.
I am on a 2 year work assignment in the Netherlands and was given a 2015 E300 Blutec Hybrid Estate blah blah blah.
Not thrilled as I am obviously from the other side of the fence!
Anyways, are there any mods that I can do? I hate all of the chrome... black out grill? what about some larger wheels and tires? It has 18"s on it now they just look puny.
Any shops in The Hague that anyone knows about?
Any input would be appreciated!
PS the tech on this car absolutely sucks. doesn't even have a back up camera... my 2007 Acura had a back up camera.

wow the truth must hurt. I was just looking for some advice on upgrades.
oh also, I know I had mentioned my 2007 acura... now let me mention my 2001... the nav screen in my 2015 MB is pretty much the exact same size. 15 years brings progress... except for MB.
confirmed I'll be sticking to Welt and Stuttgart for my future purchases.
cheers!

get a 65 inch flat screen and slap it in front of your winscreen. how big a nav screen do you need?

well its true what they say...whiners are wieners.

I had 3 BMW before my current Mercedes, let me tell you this, BMW has nothing on Mercedes. What you are saying is ridiculous, the opposite can also be true if you had an AMG car and your boss gave you a strip down BMW 528i.
