“Schäfer?Reisen” already decided the route of the new touring coach before the S 516 HD was delivered to the operator at the Setra Customer Center. The coach is the first ComfortClass 500 that will be delivered by the Daimler AG company to the state of Hesse in Germany.Horst Lauer, the proprietor of the company, also did not have a difficult time in acquiring the latest model of Setra buses. He indicated that the sale was already made at the launch event that was held last summer.He was impressed by the design and the cost-efficiency of the vehicle and his decision to acquire the vehicle was validated when he took one model for a spin. He noted a significant improvement in the quality along with the handling of the vehicle. The S 516 HD offers reclining seats that feature leather headrests for forty-eight passengers. The vehicle also features a multi-purpose area, galley kitchen, hotdog warmer and water heater, along with a DVB tuner for its audio-visual system.The “Schäfer?Reisen” was established in 1951 by Eugen Schäfer, which was the same year the Setra brand was founded.

After a tough qualifying session, there was some light at the end of the tunnel for the Mercedes-Benz DTM team. Robert Wickens managed to claim his first podium finish in the Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters, climbing all the way from 13th on the starting grid all the way to P3 at the end of the race held at the historic Brands Hatch circuit.Gary Paffett was the guy who actually finished in P3, but he was slapped with a 5-second penalty after going past the speed limit in a sector during a yellow flag situation. That penalty bumped Paffett down to sixth, and Wickens moved up to the podium to join race winner Mike Rockenfeller and second-placer Bruno Spengler.Christian Vietoris took eighth place, while Pascal Wehrlein managed to get his first point in DTM competition by finishing in tenth place.Paffett, last year’s drivers’ championship runner-up, was clearly not pleased. “I just don’t understand this penalty,” said Paffett, who is currently in fourth place in the drivers’ standings. “I came off the accelerator when the yellow flags were out, but how am I expected to lose half a second inside ten seconds? In a championship race as tight as the DTM, every last point counts.”The next race will be at the Red Bull Ring, on the weekend of June 1-2.

The 205 generation C-Class enters the scene next year during spring following the official premiere scheduled for NAIAS Detroit 2014. Planned to be manfuactured in an integrated production network consisting of the Bremen plant (Germany), Tuscaloosa (Alabama), East London (South Africa) and Beijing (China), the new Mercedes-Benz mid-sized premium models will substantially grow in size, in addition to weighing less and offering more in terms of efficiency, driving pleasure and automotive intelligence. The introduction of the CLA just beneath the current C-Class series is determining a substantial upscale movement of the next generation of the mid-sized portfolio of models. The Limousine (W 205) will be unveiled in January next year at Detroit and will be followed in the course of the year by three new models: the wagon T-Modell (S 205) in spring, the C-Coupe (C 205) during summer and the C-Cabrio (A 205) in autumn. All the four new models will feature a new platform called MRA (Mercedes Rearwheel Architecture), which also adds almost 10 centimeters to the overall length of the car leading it to 4.70 meters. The wheelbase will also grow, meaning the cabin will be even more spacious than on the present model. Moving the new C-Class closer to the E-Class emphasizes the importance of this high-volume model for the future growth strategy of Mercedes-Benz. While the W 205 and S 205 will feature a more classic design (with two different faces for the Elegance and Avantgarde equipment lines), the C 205 and A 205 will display a highly dynamic, distinct identity congruent with their sporty character. The design language will consist of progressive lines and shapes, with a striking, hallmark front end boasting bigger headlights with LED technology (set to create impressive inner graphics) and a more upright radiator grille. The laser-based light technology (premiered on the Concept GLA in April) could be launched for the new C-Class towards 2016 and thus offer even more advanced performance compared to the already wide-spreading LED technology. The underpinnings comprise a completely newly engineered technical platform for a precise driving and maximum comfort. An important highlight is the lightweight construction, making use of composite materials, aluminium and high-strength steel for the construction of the bodyshell and chassis which eventually substantially reduces the kerb weight of the car. Furthermore, the extensive package of assistance systems grouped under the slogan "Mercedes-Benz Intelligent Drive" will take care to ensure an unprecedented level of safety, predictability and dynamism. Most of the technical upgrades will come from the new S-Class (more details --> HERE), which the new C-Class also resembles in terms of the design philosophy. Expect a fully revised interior architecture, boasting enhanced functionality, a quality feel and an upscale atmosphere. Connectivity will be brought to a new level thanks to the implementation of the new generation COMAND Online, also borrowed from the brand's luxury flagship. From 2015, the touchpad system and the Head Up Display could also become available in the C-Class after their launch in the S-Class. Moreover, the new powertrain will be joined by several new and frugal diesel and petrol engine, as well as current efficiency-optimized powerplants. BlueEFFICIENCY package will be available across the entire range and, like in the cases of the A-Class and CLA, Mercedes-Benz will also offer a special, environmentally friendly version for the new C-Class (most likely for the C 180 and C 200 CDI variants). An important piece that also improves fuel economy is the reportedly low drag coefficient (Cd), rumored to be near 0.23 - 0.24 similar to other new models released by the German constructor lately. Diesels will mostly consist of BlueTEC choices for the range-topping variants (C 250 BlueTEC, C 300 BlueTEC and C 350 BlueTEC). From the 2015 model year, the introduct

Two weeks after the season opener at Hockenheim, the historic Brands Hatch track in Kent plays host to the DTM. Gary Paffett (EURONICS Mercedes AMG C-Coupé), who is contesting his home race, will be starting from twelfth on the grid. The Englishman missed out by 36 thousandths on the third segment of qualifying after posting a lap time of 41.363 seconds. His Mercedes-Benz team-mate Robert Wickens (stern Mercedes AMG C-Coupé / 41.440 seconds) starts from P14 in Sunday’s race. Placed third in the season-opener at Hockenheim, Christian Vietoris (DTM Mercedes AMG C-Coupé), finished the first qualifying session in P17 with a time of 41.709 seconds and missed moving into Q2 by 26 thousandths of a second. Roberto Merhi (THOMAS SABO Mercedes AMG C-Coupé / 41.748 seconds), Pascal Wehrlein (DTM Mercedes AMG C-Coupé / 41.783 seconds) and Daniel Juncadella (stern Mercedes AMG C-Coupé / 41.787 seconds) will start the second race of the season from positions 20 to 22 on the grid respectively. Less than one tenth of a second separated all four drivers from progressing to the second qualifying segment. The small distances between cars in the first qualifying session are a testament to the highly competitive nature of the DTM: A mere four tenths of a second covered all 22 drivers in Q1. Looking ahead to the race: The second race of the DTM season gets under way (live on ARD television, beginning at 1:05pm) on Sunday, 1:30pm, at the historic Brands Hatch circuit. Martin Tomczyk (BMW / 41.158 seconds) starts from pole position. The race at the shortest track to feature on the DTM calendar covers 98 laps and a total distance of 189.042km. Gary Paffett won his home fixture last year at Brands Hatch from pole position. Comments after Qualifying Gary Paffett (32, England, EURONICS Mercedes AMG C-Coupé): 12th, (41.363 seconds) „Qualifying was a big disappointment. I took pole position last season and went on to win the race – I would’ve liked to repeat that result this year. The balance of the car did not feel too bad, it was alright. I had no major understeer nor oversteer, but unfortunately, we were not fast enough. On this short circuit, three tenths of a second make a big difference. I extracted the maximum out of the car and was on the limit on every lap. Hopefully, by tomorrow we will have found even more speed in the car, and then we can have a clean and fair race in which I aim to secure as many points as possible.“ Robert Wickens (24, Canada, STIHL Mercedes AMG C-Coupé): 14th, (41.440 seconds) „It was really tight today; anything could have happened. I would obviously have liked to make it through to Q3, but unfortunately, my lap time wasn’t good enough. We need to investigate the reasons for that. We know that our race performance isn’t bad, and with the introduction of DRS and the new option tyres, it should still be possible to finish in the points tomorrow. Also there is the weather factor: if it starts to rain, that could completely reshuffle the pack and shake everything up.“ Christian Vietoris (24, Germany, DTM Mercedes AMG C-Coupé):17th, (41.709 seconds) „My position on the grid for the second race of the season is a disappointment after achieving a podium in Hockenheim, for sure. The team did a great job and I don’t blame them – the car felt good. I missed going through into Q2 by only 26 thousandths of a second, so it was extremely close. Qualifying at Brands Hatch is always like trying to balance on a razor blade; you have to be out on track at the right time and cannot afford to make a single mistake on this short circuit. Qualifying is over and done with and cannot be rerun, so we’ll just have to make the best of things in the race. Of course, I hope to pick up at least a couple of points.“ Roberto Merhi (22, Spain, THOMAS SABO Mercedes AMG C-Coupé):20th, (41.748 seconds) „That was a crazy session. We don’t know why we were lacking the speed to get us into Q2. Obviously, I would have wished for a better

I purchased a pre-owned/used 2007 E350 3 months ago. The dashboard computer readout says "C" service is due in XXXX miles. I can not find anything about "C" service in the owners manual or maintenance manual. Can someone tell me what this is for? Thanks in advance.
