My new travel partner

[Quiet]

Hi guys

 

So after 07 long years i have decided to part with my trusty Audi A5, and move on after 130K solid kilometers (bought with 250Km on the clock), I have to say it gave me no major headaches other than replacement of the A/C Compressor.

 

So starting a new chapter with my new Merc E200 2023, hope it gives me the same satisfaction as the Audi. So far the experience is good without the spirited engine of the Audi.

Congratulations mate!

The car looks absolutely stunning in Polar White. Personally, I like that colour.

I’m loving the Burmester sound system too—unfortunately, mine doesn’t have it. 😞

I'm guessing yours has the 2.0L engine paired with the 9G-Tronic gearbox? That’s a solid combo, and honestly, a much better fit for a place like SL compared to the DSG in your A5.

One thing I’ve steered clear of is the version with air suspension, the repairs cost a fortune, and reliability still hasn’t caught up to the standard you get with Toyota/Lexus KDSS systems. Hopefully, yours doesn’t come with it! 😅

Mine’s a GLC250d, currently sitting at 175K, and so far it’s been as reliable as a Toyota. The best advice I got? Just keep driving it—mine’s a daily driver and it’s been great.

Happy motoring @Quiet
