1st time Merc Owner (A200)

[Desmond Fong]

Good morning to all.

Just book my A200 couple of weeks back and was being told to expect delivery Feb/Mar.

Received a message yesterday that the 1st attempt on the COE was unsuccessful. Anyone able to advice what happens next if all 6 attempts were unsuccessful?

Thanks in advance

PS: Please let me know if i have posted my question at the wrong place. Newbies here after all

So we will get the car earlier if i we managed to get the COE bid successful?

@Desmond Fong I think that depends if your car is already on our shores.

Got it, thanks

I am excited about the new car but my old COE will expire in March. So, quite a mix feeling though. haha

Any members able to give a recommendation for a decent price and good installer for installation of keyless entry and engine?

Personally I don't feel a big loss not having the keyless entry. 

Between this and say movable rear seats or CarPlay, I would opt for the latter two.

I understand what you mean bro. Am quite use to have that feature with my current car which was installed by a 3rd party workshop for $360 (with security alarm feature). The door unlock when i m near the car and push button start/stop engine. Door lock (with engine stop) when i walk away. That's really helpful when hands are full

Indeed. Keyless Go isn't a necessity until you use them and get used to it. Then you get stuck with them for lyfe.

Precisely! But, I am considering if I should spend that kind of money. Am still checking if the price quoted were for 2 or 4 doors.

[Odessus]

I'm not sure but does Keyless Go come in 4-doors?

Good morning. Yes, it does. As mentioned above, the price quoted in fact was for 5 doors (trunk/boot).
