Morning all, I am a new MB owner, so have enjoyed browsing the posts on here! I couldn't find an answer to my question, so I am hoping I can get some help by starting a thread.
I have a 02 plate (2011) C250 which I have on a 3 year lease. I got a good deal on the car, but unfortunately I did not realise what the basic radio was like and I am now looking for options to upgrade.
I contacted my local MB dealer and for an upgrade and the addition of sat nav they quoted over £2k which I can't justify. I went to Halfords and they had a Pioneer system, but the issue was it wouldn't integrate with the centre console controls and also wouldn't do anything about the main screen, as it is just a radio replacement with a screen attached.
If I don't go the MB route I would need the system I install to have the possibility of being replaced with the current in 3 years time, as I am sure MB finance won't accept the new AV system.
Any advice will be greatly appreciated.
