On the road
Driving
Feels solid, but nothing special. Good grip but too much roll.
Performance
Feels underpowered, especially with 4 speed Auto. You need a C220 or above for any real performance.
-
Living with it
Reliability
Top notch.
Image
Upmarket, classy, but getting old. An old chimney on wheels for some.
Comfort
Not as comfy as I expected. Tiring on long journeys. Not as refined as others in its class. Noisy engine.

Go to independents at this age and mileage
