Nice!

Interesting how they keep doing the run flats for LHD vehicles but removed them for the RHD markets

Yes still enjoying the car, had a reasonably cool Christmas, but heating up to the high 30's this week.
That lambo is a mate of mine, we went out for the first cruise with my new glc43.
Oz glc43 don't get the badge either, I ordered the AMG badge and installed it (very carefully) myself.
Yeah glad I bought those plates, they are called "Euro style" plates here.
Looks great with the paint protection! Gyeon Quartz is one of the best paint protection on the market.. Whereabouts did you have it done, JustinS?
Ive just ordered a '43, and i'll be looking at getting Gyeon Quartz paint protection too.

Are your Euro plates the same size for front and back?

Very nice fella.

How much did the AMG interior logo set you back.

I'm in Perth too , and was looking at the same plate combination you have. I think that's the best combination - smaller at the front, larger at the back.

I have Nanolex paint sealer on my current car, but im sure the Gyeon will out-perform it. The Gyeon probably wont have such a huge visual impact on the colour i picked though - Diamond White. But im hoping it will keep it clean for longer.

Did you get your wheels done as well?

How long did he have the car for?


Ive been down to Mad inc before in Vic Park for some car care products. They have some nice cars go through there!

Yes, exterior interior & wheels. Pick up the same day.
Check his Facebook for pics of mine getting done.
Who did you purchase through?
Will have to make a day for a glc43 cruise when you get yours.

Awesome, that's a pretty quick turn around.. I was going to treat the inside myself, but i might get him to do the whole shebang whilst its there, it'll save me a whole heap of time..

How long did your car take to get here? My order has only just recently gone in, and im expecting probably 3-4 months, hopefully have a more concrete time frame later this week. Mine was purchased through Westpoint this time.

A GLC43 cruise sounds sweet! I wonder how many more Perth 43's are out there?

Picked mine up 19th November and I think it was the 4th one into Perth. It was fortunate that one was on the ship in the spec I wanted, so wait was about 1 month.
Oh cool, Westpoint is great to deal with.
Roy mentioned that they're planing cruises & other events through their AMG performance centre. Will ask him about that next time I'm there.
Excited for you buddy, you're going to love it 😍

Hi Justin. Your 43 looks great and really stands out. Have you noticed any of the crabbing issues with yours?

I don't, if I compare rear tyres to front, the front look worn more than rear but not grained or edge worn like others have posted.
I only drive mine on weekends and it's done 1400kms since November.

That's good to hear. I'm still trying to get a feel for how many RHD cars are affected and nice to know there's at least one out there that runs smoothly (so far, at least)

The GLC43 demo I test drove here in Perth didnt appear to crab. I tested it out in a bitumen carpark, full lock both ways, crawling speed.. Didnt bounce, jump or skip. It was dry at the time and outside temp was mid to high 20's ( deg c )

I have this 'characteristic' in my current A250. Only noticeable on full lock over slippery surfaces, - brick paving, painted concrete etc.. It doesnt bang, jolt and bounce around, but you can feel it, almost like an understeer sensation through the steering wheel..

Pick up Dec 2016



I love this car except for the slight crabbing I notice.
Windscreen gets polished this Saturday due to wiper judder and will discussing tire ware and steering judder with MB.

Looking great!

Sorry to hear about the tyre crabbing In the UK prospective owners are now being asked to sign a waiver to acknowledge they are aware of the 'characteristic'.

If you can get a copy of the waiver, could you possibly post it, please? I'm in the 'states and haven't taken delivery yet, but in the event the issue isn't relegated to right hand vehicles, would love to show it to the dealer when they deny the problem exists.


Thanks.

I wanted to take more pictures, but it was hard taking any good pictures today with the Sun shining near the car. I didn't pickup the car today, but will get the car before the end of the month.
