CHRYSLER 300C road test reports and car reviews

Chrysler 300C 3.0 CRD Auto 2008

I’ve had this car since new and as others have commented, it is a real headturner. Spec is a bit basic, I’d have preferred a sunroof, bluetooth and satnav, as we have on my wifes car, the Chrysler Sebring, but these are just personal taste features I guess. This car loves the motorways and it’s like driving whilst sat in a big comfy armchair. My previous 3 cars have all been E Class Mercs and I had electics problems with all 3 of them. As most people reading this will probably know, the 300c is essentially an E Class with an american shell, with the chassis, running gear and engine all coming from Mercedes. True to form, 18 months down the line I’ve had an electrics problem with the 300c now; whilst on a European road trip. Having said that, the Chrysler Assist service was excellent. I reported the fault whilst in Belgium and they diagnosed the fault, ordered the parts and repaired it at the nearest dealership all free of charge to me. This car comes with 3 year warranty, so no need for European breakdown cover. My car came with the Bentley grill fitted, although I didn’t order it. Glad it did though as it really enhances the exterior look. Am I impressed with this car? Yes Would I have another one? Definately, but SRT spec next time.
