Ok, so I joined the group last week and have enjoyed the craic as well as picking up some valuable knowledge as this is the first MB in my household.
I have found out what the little grey holes are in the rear passenger side panels- for a wind deflector!! I don’t think this car needs additional deflectors but MB obviously does.
Also interested to see how in the main, additional chrome badges are a no no.
So, thought I’d post a pic of the wife’s 220D. Apologies in advance for the AMG badge for you purists!
Am awaiting plenty of abuse

Nothing that a Hair Dryer and a length of fishing line won't fix

Is it on 20" wheels? Those rims look really close to the ground.

Stunning motor, the A207 & C207 are lovely looking cars, particularly in White.

Welcome and lovely car! As predicted you have extra boot weight needs to come off......

Nice car, a friend of mine has this model in red, and the paint is still shiny

Trouble with the Internet is things get repeated which isn't always the best or correct answer .

Not everyone has fishing line and power has to be run out to the car some might be on the road outside , obviously not the case here .

Best method is spray WD40 at the top of them , leave for a teabreak and then boil a kettle and pour on them , the badges almost fall off .

19” and we keep kerbing the alloys as they protrude further than the rim

My E350 is on 18" summer tyres, & 17" winter tyres. A much better ride on the 17"

Thanks Gazwould,
Took about 6 mins, needed a touch of elbow grease, didn’t quite fall off
