Hi all,picked my GLC 43 up on friday night .I thought I would get some miles in so headed off to North Wales on saturday afternoon for an overnight stay then back home Yorkshire.
First impressions are that I love this car,when buying my choice was a little limited because the wife wanted an suv for the child & dog but not too big,I wanted some petrol power so this fitted the bill spot on.
While waiting the crabbing issues came to light and I was on fence whether to take the plunge or not initially,but I gradually came round to the idea and I'm glad I did.
The sound in sport + brings a grin everytime you put your foot down then back it off - I'm running it in honest.
I like a firm ride so for everyday driving I've got the individual setting of :
Suspension - Sport +
Steering - Sport
Engine. - Comfort
Eco - Off
Then just flick it into Sport + to have a play.
I've done over 600 miles in the last 2 days and it's been a nice place to be.
On sport+ the suspension is so comfy even with the 21's on.
Mpg wise 25 overall,the return 200 miles home 27 so very happy.
I got the 360 deg camera which is vey trick but the only thing I miss is the audible sound from the parking sensors,you have to nearly hit something before they beep and it's too quiet,I know you should be using the camera but I'm used to just using the mirrors and listening for the continuous beep,I can't find any setting to adjust this.
That's my only gripe and some slight crabbing.
Overall - loving it.
