congratulation. One of the first P250 in continental Europe. Nice colour + wheels choice

Finally on January 2nd I took her home!

To date, I have traveled only 300 km. And the overall impression is fantastic ... this new engine combined with the ZF gearbox is perfect ... in the next few days I hope to have time to drive a lot to write my impressions.

I ordered my P250 SE Carpathian Grey at the beginning of October in Zurich and as of yesterday's update the car is already produced and I'll get it in next 3 weeks, can't wait :!:

@Krishzuroch congrats, have you ordered it by Emil Frey or UetliGarage? I had my previous insurance with Allianz and probably will stay with them. But will have a comparison with axa as my motorbike is insured there and maybe will get some good offer. Just check on comparis.ch, but I would go for some well known insurer as Allianz, axa or Zurich, but Zürich my be a bit more expensive from my experience.
Which color have you choose?

For now I have traveled only 700 km. and the average consumption is 9.7lt / 100km ... so I would say an excellent performance

About comfort is really a surprise ... I mean seriously ... the suspension is absolutely better than the air of the 2014 Grand Cherokee

I'm really satisfied and much more 'of expectations ... consider that the 2.0 petrol I chose without trying it

Internet, live and other web do not work though ... maybe update?

By the way it is very quiet ... never again a diesel

@basel thanks for the additional information. I had a test drive with P380 and P250 and to be honest the P250 is more than enough for me (I never was into diesels anyway)

Thanks for the suggestions! I had my previous car insured by Allianz and am deciding between Allianz or Axa or Zurich insurance now....

I have ordered a metallic black P250 r dynamic HSE with a fair few options - panoramic sliding roof, heads up display, 22" wheels, roof rails, ambient lighting

I'm waiting for my P300 to arrive in Melb Australia next month - am not a fan of diesels either, so very pleased to hear about how happy P250 owners are with their cars (hopefully P300 will be similar). I didn't order the black roof, because I didn't like the look but I must say with the silver color and wheels of Basel's car it really looks great! Thanks for posting the pics and keep telling us about your driving experience !

I think the black roof looks good on the very light colors like silver or aruba (which I love btw), but the best match for the black roof is the red velar.
On my carpathian grey the black roof would be waste of money

I ordered from Uetli as they offered me better price for old car and faster delivery time
And actually my experience with Frey customer service was not the best one

Fingers crossed I have a good customer experience!!

When I placed the final order in early August I had a bmw m135i with the lease ending in early January so didn't mind being told delivery was around 6 months (jan 2018)

Having said that - the experience I've had so far with Emil grey hasn't been bad to be fair to them although not as 'above and beyond' as Binelli Bmw in Zurich!

Would actually be good to keep in touch in case any questions on Zurich deliveries or spec / issues come up! I really hope the window fogging issue doesn't come up - I emailed the dealer this week to make that point and they said the car will of course be delivered with all updates available until now but let's see once I pick up the car on Friday! Fingers crossed :)
