2014 Mercedes Benz C 300 4matic
2014 C 300 4MATIC DRIVING WEAR AND TEAR
Hello Everyone,
I purchased a brand new 2014 C300 4matic last year and within a year (11 months to be more precise) I have driven 34,000km most of which is city driving (work, groceries, etc). IT IS REMARKABLE HOW MUCH I LOVE IT. I love my vehicle a lot but I drive it like I stole it. My friends make fun of me because I will be running out of warranty pretty soon if I keep driving it like I do. I have driven it every single day since the day of purchase even if it was -35 degrees out. Snow or dry pavement, my car has seen it all.
Most of the times I find myself putting the car in SPORT.
Until now I only have done the 20,000km service A and the only time my car has gone to the dealership. Now, because of the way I drive, am I going to face any severe problems? I tried many times, but I just cannot accelerate normally (because of the winter here I do not own a C63 which I am happy about).
I baby it a lot. People see it today and ask if I had purchased it yesterday so most definitely it is in an immaculate condition inside/out. My girlfriend gets annoyed as I ask her to use the door handle when she opens and closes the door LOL. I have always waited till the engine reached 90 degrees operating temperature. So yes, It is in an amazing condition.
ALWAYS SINCE THE DAY OF PURCHASE IT HAS BEEN FILLED WITH 91 PREMIUM GAS FROM SHELL. I hope this helps towards the answer.
I hope a little bit of story helps answer the question.
Driving a little hard all the time, will I face any severe problems? (there are no problems at all right now, no sounds, no lights, etc neither did I ever have a problem since the day of purchase)
All pictures were clicked last month. I will post recent ones soon!
