Is it a late W204 or early W205?

Not the best photo. Was going to change my 2015 C Class C200 for another one (just more newer).
Decided to go for a 68 plate C300 AMG Line.
I know its nothing like what you guys are used to speedwise but damn it does put a smile on my face when I floor it
Absolutely loving it.
I test drove a VW Arteon the other day before I bought this... and I genuinely said to myself... how can I go from a Merc back to VW.....
In the meantime, Ill just oogle over the nice photos of the faster Mercs you guys have

Nice - one thing I like about the 'states is that the lowest engine C class you can buy is a C300. None of this C180/C200 nonsense! (I have a W205 C200 estate 
)

Lovely!
Do they do an estate c300?
I’ve come from a c63 estate to a c250, would a bit more oomph free this one
Yes I believe they do! Quite a few of them were popping up on Autotrader when I was searching for the C300 Saloon.
Any reason people opt for the Estate as opposed to the Saloon aside from the obvious reason of additional space etc?

The official ones are £108 from Merc direct. Those are the 'Mercedes Benz' version, I can't find the 'AMG' ones which should come with your spec.
I'd be talking to the dealership about it to get them comped, though.

Amg line mats are crazy expensive . The official aMg ones are about 3 or 4 hundred!?

On the 2019 CLA they are AMG branded, if you configure a car up on the Mercedes site it should tell you...

Still can’t part with my white slk 55. So booked into herts wheels for gloss black wheels, chrome delete to black, black rear spoiler and orange/copper callipers. Looking forward to seeing the result.

Mods, surely this requires the removal of his "Man of Honour" status?

My C350e is due back soon and I'm looking at replacements. The C is great for work driving myself around but it's way too cramped for family purposes now we have a baby to go with an 11 year old. I'm very tall and nobody can sit comfortably behind me.
Pretty much decided I need an E Class Estate, and given the current absence of decent lease deals and potentially high mileage for work and holidays I think I'll just buy a used E220d. I'd like a 350 but they're very expensive and quite rare.
I like high spec cars - I definitely want Comand Online because the Garmin system is woeful, and I'd like the digital dash and 360 camera. Has anyone got the Driving Assistance Pack? I really like Adaptive Cruise and the other features look good too.
