Mercedes-Benz C-Class Saloon C 300 Luxury Sedan 2008

5 star review

Just beautiful. Best Mercedes I ever had. It’s my fifth after the W201, W124, W210, and W211, and it keeps its value great!

Mercedes-Benz C-Class Saloon C320CDI 2008

5 star review

This is a serious car; stylish, well built and equipped and very very fast. My wife has a 2005 E320 CDI, which is a far more comfortable car but lacks the performance of the C320. I bought mine from Mercedes with 9k on the clock and saved about £10k - bargain. Fully loaded with COMMAND sat nav, heated seats, voice recognition, heated seats and panoramic roof it really is a wolf in sheeps clothing. If there is a downside it is savage on tyres which is probably down to my driving and short round town drive journeys.

Mercedes-Benz C-Class Saloon C220 CDI 2008

4 star review

Beautiful looking machine. Very chuckable with very assured handling and excellent fuel economy. Slightly more road noise than my earlier C220 CDI but that is to be expected given the wider section rubber. Perhaps an experiment with different tyres may improve matters ie Yokohama Db’s. Overall a very talented car and a nicer image than a BMW.

Mercedes-Benz C-Class Saloon C220 2008

3 star review

Beautifully made with excellent road holding, the car is spoiled by a poor ride at speed. Motorway cruising is simply not as relaxed as my previous Volvo’s although somewhat quieter. The interior may be bigger than earlier models but I can still feel cramped when I look upwards to the interior light cluster; it’s awfully close to my eyes. Controls are well laid out but the foot-operated parking brake is ridiculous and forces a change of driving style. Parktronic is implemented poorly with insufficient aural clues. Generally I would say build quality is over-rated now that the competition (including Ford Mondeo) have raised their game.

Mercedes-Benz C-Class Saloon C 200 CDI SE 2008

4 star review

My C Class is the fourth of its generation. I opted for the diesel and the 40+ MPG. The high quality is evident in every aspect of this car. The steering is more responsive than in previous models and the ride is smooth and comfortable. I think that the price tag of around £22,000 offers good value for money and decent residual values make it a sound option when buying or leasing. The C Class is a spacious, comfortable car with a respectable selection of engines.

Mercedes-Benz C-Class Saloon 180 Kompressor SE 2008

4 star review

Another well designed car from Mercedes. I’ve had this for only two weeks but already it has impressed me. This car can really work when you need to push it and goes like a bat out of hell when you want it to. It’s a very understated car unlike the BMW 3-series but it’s all there in the drive and it’s no less fun for being, dare I say, slightly classier. Excellent safety features as you’d expect and want in a family car and great use of space too. MPG is in the 40’s bracket so all good there too. Excellent car.
