early comments on my 09

Noticed on the panorama roof quite a few blotches......just like when you would have the car tinted and there are air bubbles or littles patches left.. Maybe nit-picking but it's fairly obvious on mine and I am fussy..................as there is always something with mercedes thats just not 100% right, anyone had this before?..also found a scratch on the passengers glass as well Taking it back to the dealer tomorrow for them to inspect it.

What a beauty though and although very early days, she runs great, taking it slowly for the first 200 and then stepping it up as I am not in the camp that says you should baby it for 1000 miles, not going to become a racing driver, but not going to keep her under 60 Plus for another 850 miles....
I also was surprised that they have done away with the first free service and said I don't have to be back untill 10,000 miles. I always change the oil after the first 1000 miles..comments appreciated....

Oh and the updated command centre is a great improvement and easier to navigate.....
