I know this was on the forum some time ago, but I said at the time that I wasn't keen on it.

Well, all I can say is...... CHOMP, CHOMP, MUNCH.....GULP.

Yes, I am eating my own words!

I love it and we are now (Subject to duty changes 2008/09) seriously considering one as our 2nd car.

I think if we did (Or whatever we buy) it will probably be a petrol. Like the sound of a C350 Sport (White if I can get it past Mrs ST!!!)





C350 Sport:

3.5 V6
272bhp
0-60 = 6.3secs
AMG styling kit std
18" AMG split 5 spoke alloys

ST i love the look of these too.. think the 350 will depreciate like a dog here, but over there in white etc it will look the biz!! we have a current c class, and its very capable car, hasn't put a foot wrong.

We will be changing our customers c classes to Bmw 320d sports for the next year, then back over to these new shape c classes in 2008 i think.. my mum wants a silver one, and it will probably be the diesel sport model! love the SEC look grill.. the tv ads are looking good..

The new C-classes do look good... you can see where they've taken the design queues from the S-class. With the exception of the R-class, most of the recent new models have been great looking

Absolute Bo ks VA.

How can your mum be younger than you.

The Sport model front end looks like the new CL which I think is a lovely motor...especially when the CL65AMG emerges....woo-hoo! Runner up - 2009 Best Avatar Award

Not a huge surprise to anyone with eyesight and a brain, but just as a FYI.

My old man wanted to fuse two of his cars into one about 10 months ago, and thought a well spec'ed Merc R-Class would be a perfect solution to morphing his S-Class and X5 into one limo/loadlugger - perfect!

Anyway, the R-Class was deemed to be a complete bag of after a few thousand miles and was not a patch on his beloved S-Class

Anyway, he has decided that the R-Class is so awfully bad that he will just dispatch anything bigger than a normal car will carry in future and buy a new S-Class again.

After 10k miles the £58k R-Class was traded in for £28k (and the Dealer only bought it because he was buying the new S-Class from them - they wouldnt of bid on it otherwise )

Woops!

Dont buy one Chaps!

Although at £28k a one year old £58k Merc with 10k miles on the clock and lots of toys/options doesnt sound like a bad buy if you want a mini-van to lug kids about etc.
