I never heard of one of those, did you buy it from a MB dealer by chance?

MB is good at keeping track of their cars, I'll give them that.

no i didn't.thats what gets me.they must keep track of dmv records somehow.

Hmmm, have owned a few (see sig) and have never received any kind of communication from MBUSA. Wonder how they know about yours but not mine?

Did you buy it from the dealer?

I got a card on the one-year anniversary of the 2002 C320 wagon we bought our oldest daughter.

I thought it was nice.

Did not get one for any of my other Benzes.

Benz also sent me a nice leather wallet and a key chain for buying the C320.

And VW sent us a Rabbit t-shirt after we bought the Rabbit for daughter #2.

The only one that has sent nothing is Volvo. We bought daughter #3 a V70 wagon and we got zilch (except a very nice wagon).

I guess the Germans are trying harder.

How do you like your "new" Benz? The W126 is a great car.

Hehehe, we got a "Welcome to the family one" after buying the G....

Also got a nice key ring with it. No leather wallet though.

i didn't buy it at a dealer thats what bugs me,how do they know i have it??.and i love the car by the way i could drive it all day long and never get tired of it.

It sounds like MB puts as much thought into marketing and promotion as they do into engineering.

Some of the Swiss companies whose watches I have bought (new) send me Swiss chocolates, hats, and stuff like that for Christmas. I was pretty impressed by that. It does make you feel good about their products.

Hats???

You have got to take a picture of yourself wearing one of those hats and post it here.
