Hi,
Well I made the big leap of moving from my old w208 320 2000 to my new w209 320 2005 (both navy) not sure if I done the right thing ! a few reasons .....
The build quality does not seem in the same class, the first thing I noticed after I set off the doors clicked down on the self locking where my old 208 silently closed, the rear headrests/protection where they once, on the button raised and lowered smoothly mechanically, now they pull up by hand and flop down on the button, no coffee cup holder, headrests dont tilt , stereo not that great and I do miss the butch rear to the car
But....... the accleration is so much better and smoother as is the handling, much prettier inside, love the looks front and side, roof operation easier, newer car. What do you think , have I done the right thing ??
