Are BMW and Mercedes exactly the same in terms of quality and price/performance ratio, or are there differences?

Hello!

I try to formulate it as a Mercedes customer and C-Class driver: they are both at about the same level and far better than Audi, who are still good but not “premium”.

However, despite higher list prices, Mercedes is, in my opinion, “human” than BMW and is more likely to negotiate or negotiate with itself. is more iconic and offers special conditions that relate, inter alia, to the “experienced industry” (taxi, driving school, freight forwarders, sales representatives, etc.). There cars are sold at such good conditions, leased and waited afterwards that hardly any other manufacturer is running. Safely, driving instructors etc. also benefit from the enormous importance of taxi customers at Mercedes.

BMW sees itself as a cool, trendy manufacturer for young and dynamic people with high income, Mercedes is still more likely to make the taxi manufacturer or the reindeer brand, conservative and bourgeois —-> which they want; cars are still more “the cozy farm” than “the urban, fashionable bistro”.

My grandson has only been driving BMW since the 1960s until his death in 2016. I personally always found it hard to do with BMW dealers. Young and arrogant/professional service workers who sat around the counter in scarce blouses and tight jeans, so the interested and naughty seller or the unhappy, unhappy part seller I have not experienced any other brand until now & not at Mercedes, where I have been bought in any workshop, no matter where it was, at the highest level.

Perhaps, as a Mercedes customer, you are usually more set and more demanding & white as well as good customer service. does not pay out pride to drive a noble car to any bill without questioning or to make yourself a french, arrogant operation.

My conclusion is that Mercedes is somehow more human & customer-oriented or less self-confident than BMW, perhaps also because one had some quality problems with tilting A-classes, rust, the SBC-Bremse and the Autotronic-getriebs as well as V-Class, Vito and Viano.
