Hello all new to Mercedes . Sold my 2011 Audi Q5 . I wanted something smaller and I did not like the way the Q3 handled and it was way to slow . The Gla 35 hit the mark ,the only drawback is having to change out summer tires in the winter, but that's a small detail

Welcome. I wish you many happy miles. Since you'll be driving it on salted roads you might want to consider some sort of rust inhibitor undercoating before the snow comes.

Back in the day people did that . I have never considered doing that on any of my cars . My 2011 Q5 that I just sold never had
a problem . If I have to worry about rustproofing on this car ,this will be my last Mercedes
