Winter 2015/16
Welcome to our STARlite Winter newsletter.

Hibernation or Preparation?

What type are you? Is your Mercedes stacked away in a save place? Are you working on it in the privilege of a heated garage? Did you give it away to a specialist and are eagerly awaiting the outcome? Or are you driving your Mercedes as your daily driver?

No matter what, there are like minded in our club, this edition will connect us and our passion for all things Mercedes.

The next scheduled event will be our Guided Tour at the Mercedes-Benz booth during the Toronto International Autoshow.
 
See you there.
