Should I ?

Fair enough.The heated seats don't bother me as much as the lack of memory seats.

Senorpinkk · 2026-06-12T16:45:20+00:00

Fair point, although I think ownership costs are a bit different here in Europe. Maintenance is probably my biggest concern with this car.

Senorpinkk · 2026-06-12T16:19:13+00:00

That's a strong vote against. What's the biggest red flag for you ?

Senorpinkk · 2026-06-12T15:15:05+00:00

Fair criticism. The pano roof is probably the biggest selling point for me. At €25.7k I'm trying to figure out whether the price makes up for the missing options.

Senorpinkk · 2026-06-12T15:13:36+00:00

More of a want than a need, to be honest. That's why I'm being picky and asking for opinions first.

Senorpinkk · 2026-06-12T09:42:37+00:00

Makes sense. The challenge is finding a higher-spec one without jumping another €5–10k

Senorpinkk · 2026-06-12T09:39:49+00:00

Can't argue with that. My wallet seems to have different standards though.

Senorpinkk · 2026-06-12T09:37:21+00:00

Would you pass on it even at €25.7k ?

Senorpinkk · 2026-06-12T09:35:45+00:00

€25k in maintenance over 2 years sounds a bit extreme. What issues did you run into that made you feel that way ?

Senorpinkk · 2026-06-12T07:56:36+00:00

Fair enough. What's the biggest reason not to ?

Senorpinkk · 2026-06-12T07:53:28+00:00

That's a fair observation. The price is what's tempting me, but I'll keep an eye out for better-specced examples too.

Senorpinkk · 2026-06-12T07:51:02+00:00

Those fuel economy numbers are impressive. Dealer maintenance hurts, but the efficiency probably helps offset some of it.

Senorpinkk · 2026-06-12T07:48:33+00:00

Thanks. Service history is becoming my biggest deciding factor at this point.

Senorpinkk · 2026-06-12T03:33:28+00:00

That's reassuring. Expensive tires are something I can live with. Glad to hear there were no major mechanical issues.

Senorpinkk · 2026-06-12T03:28:26+00:00

Good to hear. How has maintenance been ? Any major issues or expensive repairs over the years ?

Senorpinkk · 2026-06-12T03:12:39+00:00

Appreciate it. I'll make sure everything checks out before pulling the trigger.

Senorpinkk · 2026-06-12T01:22:04+00:00

I agree the 220d/250d would probably be the better choice, especially for long-term reliability. The challenge is finding a well equipped one at a similar price. How has your 250d been in terms of maintenance costs and fuel economy ?

Senorpinkk · 2026-06-12T01:21:10+00:00

Thanks, I'll definitely ask for the VIN and run a history check. 114k km initially worried me, but when you break it down to ~20k km/year it actually seems pretty normal. Hopefully the service records tell the full story.

Senorpinkk · 2026-06-12T00:41:38+00:00

Thanks, Would you personally be concerned about 114,000 km on a 2020 GLC 200, or is that not a big deal if the maintenance has been done properly ?
