I've Just Bought A C270

[tempsford1]

Hi all
I'm a new member just joined because I've defected from Volvo to a 2002 Mercedes C270 Avantgarde SE Auto Estate.
Initially I hated it and put it on Ebay, however, auction doesen't finish till Monday and I'm starting to like the tremendous smooth power of the engine and I think I like the car, but the seats are very uncomfortable, should be said I'm 6'5" and 22 stone.
So, the question is: can I replace the drivers seat with a Recaro Specialist M seat, are there going to be problems?
Also, I'd love a retrofit Comand Navigation, will it cost me much?
And I've seen upgrade 20 CD Player's for sale from £45 up to £250, will they fit my car, why the price difference?
Lot's of questions I know but you guys know the answers.

Seat comfort will be an issue for a big lad like you. One Mercedes owner with a R107 SL has saab seats in it as he finds it more comfy. You might find a set of Volvo chairs at a breakers and see if you can fit them into the C270 you have. Welcome BTW

Ask Alfie from Comand.com for a quote - very good service! We had a Comand fitted by him and the sound quality is an improvement, even without taking into account the SatNav. Probably about £1000.

Many thanks, I've come from a V70 and found the seats perfect, I'll ask my garage if they could fit them.
