I use my car everyday driving to work, I have owned many different cars in my time, but nothing is like Mercedes. The Drive is very very smooth, the car is sturdy and has great turning circle. I would recommend this car, will probably go for an E-class next car.

I write this to warn all parties out there toget everything in writing. Failed to honor our servicing despite massive problems in 3 years. Now, a $3k servicing bill and Mercedes are "non responsive". We will take it further but please please ask questions so you are not like us.

I purchased the car as a demo in 2016 and I have replaced the tyres twice. The life of run flat tyres is less than 20,000 klms in my case and I believe more publicity needs to be given to this major deficit in an otherwise beautiful car. I believe many others drivers on run flat tyres are also experiencing the same poor tyre performance. I do not believe run flat tyres are fit for purpose on Australian roads. $2000/year on tyres alone is a big hit. Am I right or wrong?

Great car very comfortable nice and very easy to drive great on economy and a lot of simple to use features. Don’t be fooled this is a very easy car to service for a DIY person Oil and filter change every 15k and it will go for ever it’s 10 years old and still a great car to drive . The only problem we’ve had is a injector seal leaked and it’s common on number two cylinder easy fix

Performance is good .. matter of selecting the "sport" mode which increases the revs before gear change.
Dashboard layout is good but the reversing camera in my model 2016 is very basic. Big doors being only 2 door can be difficult to get out on an incline. Service costs are the typical Merc. robbery. Does aroun 7kms to the litre on a good run.
THE SEATS are the worst I have ever had in a car ... limited height adjustment due to the sunroof .. on long trips it is hell for the driver. Have owned the C180/C180 coupe/C200 and this is the worst car of all of them for seating ... Took it back to Merc to complain and their comment was that is what you paid for !!

Obviously being a merc the purchase price was large and the petrol and service cost are too. That aside it is a well built responsive car with some great features. Above all it is safe and reliable. I previously had a c180 coupe which was three years old. It was also a very attractive car but once my grand child came along the two doors were not practical.

Bought a 2015 C250 Bluetec with full options, luxury and economic to run. The only issue is the engine quite noisy but you can't hear much when all the windows are up. Recommend the car to any of my friends. AMG options, vision and comfort options are highly recommend .

Started off as such a wonderful drive but after a few years there was a problem with the engine. One of the engine parts (we learned) was known to fail over time. The cam shaft adjuster for the m271 engine is made from cast iron and it’s operation against the single-row steel timing chain causes the teeth to wear prematurely. The teeth can break off. This can lead to dangerous and serious engine damage. It cost $10 000 to fix. The component design has since been changed and is not a problem in new vehicles. Will never buy Mercedes again. Very let down.

Nice car to drive and to look at. It not a performance sport car, it perfect for cruising around.
Rear seats for child only. Boot space is OK for its class.
Electriconics has issues. I have air suspension and it wouldn’t raise up. Stop start function not active most times as battery never charged enough.
Running cost yet to find out (only had car for 12months), all repairs were covered by warranty.

Beautiful car to drive. Very expensive car to own. I have a Kia Sorento of the same age, the Kia servicing costs around 1/3 that of the MB C 250 CDI we have. With only 50,000km the front brakes are worn out, the Kia's are still like new, and some of the MB interior has not worn as well as the Kia. Both cars are used similarly and garaged. The Kia is a better car for long trips, it has a higher driving position and takes more stuff. While the MB performance and handling are well ahead of the Kia at legal speeds this is not an issue.

My husband bought our Mercedes benz c250 in February 4,2017 from a car retailer in campbelltown. And I would say that this car is really amazing, as there is a 360 degrees camera which you would not find in other cars. This car is a bit pricey but it's really worth .The fuel is thrifty but the parts is expensive as we had an accident while travelling from Brisbane to Sydney and hit a kangaroo and guess the headlight was broken and it cost a 5300k to replace and fix the bumper. But thanks to insurance. And also it takes a while to fix it but they ordered the parts from overseas. But other than that this car is really great inside and outside.

car handles well and is quiet on the road, but doesn't have much power.
i dislike the radio controls, they're quite difficult to use with a control knob in the centre console
car has been reliable and cheap to maintain and run (fuel and servicing)
car also takes ULP 95 octane fuel which is a bit expensive
