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.

Never buy Range Rover Cars, they are non reliable and after sale no one will listen.

Don't buy any Range Rover cars, they are worthless and inferior in quality, I bought a new Velar in April 2024 and AC malfunctioned on the delivery bay and the car is still at the workshop without any solution. AMP Motors Gurugram and JLR is least bothered after selling the car. It's almost 3 months I am not able to use the new car and paying EMI, Interest, insurance, depreciation and it's affecting my mental health now.
