It is a subtle form of advertising.

People look at his profile, click on his website, drives traffic and sales.

Half of his posts do this, the other half are cover.

That is a cynical approach, I have spoken with admins and I will NOT be pushing deals/advertising at all but just giving impartial advice. If someone wants to pm then fine

If you check out the new thread I started about tips etc I neither mention company name nor solicit business just will provide advice, where's the harm if I help people?

This is going off topic too so I will leave it at this

I had a C200 petrol manual the other week as a hire car and it did 38mpg no problem. It was very refined and certainly for a low mileage user it would be a much better alternative than a Merc diesel.

I am getting my C250 on Monday and am secretly worried that I may have made the wrong choice as the petrol is super quiet, smooth and torquey. The only redeeming feature of mine is that as an auto it is far more suited to this type of car as a motorway muncher.
The C250 has much more grunt, does a better mpg but does make quite a racket. You don't notice it so much on the inside, especially once nicely warmed, but from the outside it is quite agricultural. But then, it's a 4 pot diesel so what can we expect?

I quite like the C200 petrol but adequate just about sums up the performance.

Merc really need to slip a couple of 6 pots into the range to do the C justice.

Remove your website from your profile and I might believe you.

I'd suggest having a much better website built. It's currently horrible!!

9+ and fixed figure profiles are becoming popular for advertising to grab attention on the compare websites, IMO people aren't stupid and don't get conned by artificially low monthlies. They just take total payable and divide by the term.
You will pay a little less overall as you are technically borrowing less so pay less interest.

That depends on what you are coming from and what you are using it for, I am sure the mut in the back might complain if you need more than 7.5/ 0-60. It is not a sports car, it is There entry level saloon/estate, so I would say the performance is fine. I would like to see the unit out of tne 45 range of cars fitted to bridge the cap

If you hadn't given yourself such an obvious name then you could have. Odd.

I'm after a largish SUV for the missus. She wants a new dicovery sport but we'll see.

Anyone looking for anything similar and seen any deals? I'm thing Toureg, Mazda CX-5, X3, ML etc.

There was a good deal on a Jeep Grand Cherokee a while back but all gone. I'm yet to see a mega deal on this type of vehicle.

dude you're the one who started off with the "i've got deals but i can't tell you what they aaaaaare PM me PM me PM me" bullst. A better way of promoting your site would be to just post your own deals without saying they're from your company, you know like pretending you're a normal person, and not try and draw attention to the fact that you're a broker. Bit of a social media fail there. Sometimes it's necessary to go off topic to bring it back on. Any genuine PHers got any good deals they've seen lately, and actually want to post on here?

Without pointing at one broker in particular.. www.contracthireandleasing.com is a good place to find them. Mercedes have been running very good deals on pretty much all their range during Feb.

Suggest you read what I wrote

08:21
There are a number of good deals out at the moment, you just need to know where to look, or know someone who does!

I suggest you sort your attitude too, why do you feel it necessary to flame someone who is writing non offensive helpful posts. Yes I could pretend to be some nobody and constantly refer to deals but that would be disingenuous, only for someone to cotton on and expose a lie! My business has been built on a reputation of integrity which is rare. I'm not here to pretend I'm something I'm not but if someone wants helpful advice from an industry insider they know where to go, if someone wants to be petty and immature perhaps I can tell you where to go...

Now for everyone's sake get this topic back on subject and stop sniping unnecessarily

Yeah those Mercedes deals are all over the place, just have to do the sums as to overall cost including any document fees. If I didn't need a practical vehicle the C220/C250 estates look really nice. All deals come from one place so it's just finding out who really gives the true lowest price

http://www.contracthireandleasing.com/ as said, is a useful link that is non judgemental. Our friend theBroker is fine to give advice and a link to his own business in my book. You don't have to click on it !

CH&L website is useful but often out of date.

Not all deals do come from the same place as some brokers only have limited access to one or two funders, whereas other ones, especially those doing it properly with FCA permission will have a broader access, plus more buying power so better deals.

Fact is there is often a bedroom broker willing to do a deal for peanuts because they are not a proper broker, so you end up with shoddy service or sharp practices, you get what you pay for and sometimes if a deal is too good to be true, it's not true
