Just check the smile on my face
I bought this car with fear and trepidation because of cost if parts and the new technology that this car has. Well I am very happy and impressed with this so called old man car. In fact, I cannot wait to get home 700kms away to drive it.
I can work on some parts. I love the solid little body. I love the cruise control.
The only critism is the seats which are rather hard on the derriere. But just try and wipe the smile off my face. Just you try.
Review: I have had it for a year and did an oil change. Easy to do. Just changed sparkplugs, also nice easy job. Still smiling

Good drive
Love our C200, it has turned into our family car, fits 2 car seat in perfectly. Loving the performance of the car, the car is very quiet when we drive on the highway. Running cost is quite low compared to our previous car. One of the dislike about this car is without voice control which is very common among new cars.

Good car
Very sleek design. Very loud also, fun to drive very comfortable. Fuel lasts for two to three weeks+. Interior looks great. After 3 years plus and 140,000km though, it got many problems, brakes needed to be replaced twice, coolant had a leak, parts of the car came off etc. Good for usage under 100,000km

just love it
i bought the C250 coupe together with the AMG package. The AMG package makes this vehicle stand out from the regular C250s and improves handling and performance; particularly around tight curves and corners. it's just a perfect car that so easy to drive. it has the looks and all safety features you would ever need

Expected far more from a $75k+car
I rented a C250 for a week for a multiple stop 2000km road trip in Western Australia and have to say that while it was fantastic to drive a car of this quality, I couldn't help but expect far more from such an expensive car in terms of livability.
The good stuff:
- This is a fantastic car to drive with both plenty of acceleration (0-100km in 6.6 seconds) and great dynamics for a bigger car. I also really liked the weight of the steering.
- The quality of the interior and exterior is pretty amazing.
- It looks better than the Audi A4 and ...Read more

Functions Beautifully, when it's working
Purchased this car off my father as he was about to trade it. I do a long commute and the Commodore I was using could only even if I was driving it nicely, could only get 11 to 13 litres to the 100km, the Mercedes gets 7.4 litres to the 100km. The diesel drives differently to petrol and tends to chug along, rather than purr. It still moves along quite effectively. Very comfortable, and easy to maintain. So far it hasn't been expensive to service. Until now. Had a engine management light come on. Almost straight away lost power. Had it to a mech...Read more
anic with in a day. He worked through all the obvious things like the DFS which is a pollution scudder on the exhaust, cleaned all the fuel systems, which where gummed up I was shown images. This vehicle has 110K on it, and it's been 10 weeks and counting at the mechanics, with no sign of resolution. It's gone back wards and forwards to different Mercedes service centres, and it's still not resolved. Long trips I get 4.8 litres to the 100km, and fill it up once every two weeks rather than once a week. Only have one minor grip, the indicator arm can be a bit sticky.Similar opinion?

Absolutely love my car !!!
I love my Mercedes...it is such a safe car to drive, handles well on wet roads, also gravel roads ( if necessary )
It is extremely economical costing average of $40.00 weekly for VPower Shell petrol.
Interior ...lovely black leather comfortable seats ...with plenty of leg room for backseat passenger ...a rarity for a two door car..
The dashboard is easy to read, and the car runs quietly ....a pleasure to own and drive !

Car is good but not great
Fell in love with the new sleek look of the exterior over the traditional sedan, interior wise design is great but seats in the c200 are very uncomfortable.. For a 70K+ plus i would expect to have genuine leather seats, the seats are just a little too hard for my liking.
Everything else with the car we love!

Great Car
I have the C250 fitted with the AMG line, Vision, Comfort and COMAND packages. The AMG line package makes this vehicle stand out from the regular C250s and improves handling and performance; particularly around tight curves and corners. The seat comfort package provides extra support and options for driver and passenger comfort and there is plenty of legroom for front seat passengers. The vehicle is relatively quiet to drive. The Vision package was disappointing as the Head-Up Display has been dropped out of the package, although Mercedes B...Read more
enz still have it listed on their website as part of the package and the Dealer I purchased from did not point out to me that the HUD was unavailable. Massive deception on the part of Mercedes Benz to still have the HUD included on the website but not have it available; HUD apparently hasn't been available for several months so there is no excuse for not updating the web information. The vehicle is economical to run and rides well in "Comfort" mode. The "Sports" and "Sports +" modes provide a tighter ride. The COMAND system is a not particularly intuitive, especially the Navigation commands. The dial and touchpad are a big gimmicky given that the system is designed to be controlled by the buttons on the steering wheel as well and it is safer to have your hands on the wheel. I thought the panoramic glass sunroof could make the car hot if in the sun for any length of time but it seems very well insulated and the car aircon cools it quickly anyway. Lots of brilliant safety features, alarms and alerts Mercedes is famous for and I'm happy with my purchase. Still not happy about the HUD being left out of the Vision package and Mercedes Benz not letting people know via their website.Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

Superb car! Love it!
The handling, performance, and features are all A1. It is a stunning looking vehicle that gets lots of compliments.
Very comfortable and very easy to drive. Perfect reliability so far, with no niggles or problems.
Reasonable service costs and Mercedes Benz customer care second to none. They really make you feel special.

A perfect car with all the bells and whistles.
C250 AMG sports pack. A great car to drive,has the looks and has all the safety features you would ever need. Economical and quiet, the interior is like a planes cockpit, the sound system is pure quality. The heated seats, sunroof and seat comfort package are a dream. Would highly recommend.

Love My Car
Diesel engine an absolute gem, powerful yet frugal.luxury at its best. High tech, almost makes driver redundant but paradoxically a great driver's car.5.1 litres per 100 kms whilst 0 to 100 in 7.1 seconds.
A real head turner especially with the AMG wheels, and the panoramic sun roof gives the interior lots of light.

Safe and reliable
A good comfy roomy small family car that housed my wife & kids in a safe manner mechanically sound, easy to service plenty of parts available. Like most things that go round, regular servicing a must, 346000 KLM later was still going well and sold it on to a very happy party.

Plush but harsh
The C250 is a lovely looking car, Packed with all options including head up display and impressive technology in the cabin. On the road the ride is not harsh but very comfortable. Now the negative the engine is loud and agricultural being a old generation 2 litre with a turbo starting the vehicle with it's push button start is a surprise due to the loud un refined engine. On the road it continues to intrude in the cabin and power is satisfactory but not over whelming. if not a little under powered.. I've owned a previous gen E class that was ju...Read more
st beautiful but this cars engine is crude considering the refinement of some Korean and Japanese cars. This car would suit a elderly person or real estate agent but for me it's a rough engine but for my money a fully optioned Mazda 6 is a far superior car with the exact same options and approx. 30 kw more power. and about $25,000 cheaper. Mercedes have dropped the ball and are now just building run of the mill cars. Servicing is 12 months 25,000km on it and each service is priced at $900 basic. Keep walking.Similar opinion?

Nice but not what it should be.
Very nimble and enough power but gearbox feels nervous and just doesn't quite deliver that European luxury car feel. Handles well but doesn't feel sure footed. Run flat tyres are a disaster if you get stuck somewhere a decent distance from a tyre shop, especially on a long weekend. The computer is very slow to navigate. Nice styling and great seats. All in all I went from an Audi Quattro which was quite a bit older to this and expected to be pleasantly surprised but wasn't...although I reminisced on what a great car it was when I drove a new Camry!

Good car
Great in most respects, I would strongly suggest getting a few options, not cheap but well worth them.
Intelligent LED lights...they make country driving much better.
Air suspension.... I didn't get this but wish I had, not for sporty driving but more control over speed humps and steep driveways you can raise it to stop the scape.
Intelligent cruise control.....great not only country driving but city traffic works perfect to take some stress away.
The Diesel engine is very good, Syd to Melb shout 4.6Lt/100 klm and no smell, hardly any diesel noise.

Very expensive vehicle to maintain!! Poor Design!!
After being a loyal BMW customer for over 15 years we decided to replace one of our BMW's with the new Mercedes-Benz C-Class W205, What a horrible experience it has been.
The bump in the road was a worrying one, the vehicles rear tyres wore out in 15,000 klms! at $600.00 a pair it was a cost that wasn't accounted for. After speaking with three Benz dealers its normal for the W205 to "Chew" rear tyres, together with an A service (Oil Change) cost of $750.00 the bill comes to a yearly cost of $1,350.00. if you add the 2nd year of ownership cost ...Read more

If you buy a new C Class, check your wheel alignment
I have a 2014 C250 BlueTEC. After 17,000km the front Continental tyres needed replacing. This was due to an incorrect wheel alignment at delivery. This is not covered under warranty. After 22,000km the rear tyres needed replacing also. If you buy a new C Class, check your wheel alignment. It saves a big bill.
