Car nerd

Merc stands on the top of customer service. Driving pleasure is too good makes u feel important and provides luxury. Performance is good, sunblinds could be electric for the rearview passenger. GLC is a low-maintenance car. But yes, the rear passenger may feel a little cramped on long routes.

Nice

It's was really a very good experience it's one of the best car ever seen I have great desire to purchase the car like Audi and riding experience was absolutely owsme so I would personally recommend u to go through once
