E class cabriolet delivered with wrong badge
Discussion
Hi all,
I have just received my E350 Cabriolet. It is all great except it came with wrong badge, E200 instead of E350 and 4matic. Everything including documents, VIN no, existence of EQ boost (only other EQ boost model cabriolet is E53) confirms that it is E350. Besides, there is no E200 cabriolet at all and 4matic is only available on E450 and E53 Cabriolet.
Mercedes confirmed that it is just a wrong badge and it is booked for rebadging.
Has anyone had similar experience? Given sticking a badge is the most trivial part of the production, should I be worried that something else is wrong as well? To be fair, Mercedes confirmed that they will do more checks other than rebadging. Please, let me know. Thanks in advance.

Aids.
Ebola.
None of them compare to the possible shame of the neighbours not really appreciating the monthly rent you're paying.

Well done OP, Not only have you got a nice car to drive round in for less than it would have cost in depreciation, you have also managed the added bonus of annoying two of the simpler minded folk on here.Aids.

Be cool to get an E200 delivered with a E350 badge and insist they put the correct engine in.
Not sure why anyone needs to belittle it, its a strange anomaly on a new car but are we only allowed to discuss really dire things like Ebola and stuff (NPE is that way chaps --->. If you get a new car, you kind of want what you ordered.
Nice car, enjoy it in good health (with the correct badge on) !

The 350 badge has confused me because I thought that the engine would be a 3 litre V6(my GLC 350d is apart from being diesel instead of petrol). Whereas in this it is a 2 litre engine isn't it?
It is really difficult to keep up with the badging on German cars now that is for sure.
Really nice motor by the way!

Yes but on a Sprinter van and not a car.
I ordered a 316 as I’m the boss rather than the more plebeian 311 or 313. Very unhappy when it arrived sporting a 313 badge. Much shouting and grumpy ness later it was confirmed as a 316 with the wrong badge. So it does happen.
Mind you the vans are built in some dodgy factory, in Greece I think, so no real surprise there.
