    Lets see if it holds its money as well as Mercedes say it will.

    Costs

    3 out of 5 3.0

    I didn't expect it to be cheap to run and its not, if you want an economical car you should buy a Smart Car.

  • On the road

    Driving

    4 out of 5 4.0

    It drives extremely well, although I find the guidance given by the sat nav cannot be heard when driving at speed, even with the roof up.

    Performance

    5 out of 5 5.0

    The guy in the Porsche liked the look of my rear bumper, not that he got the chance to see the front of the car.

  • Living with it

    Reliability

    1 out of 5 1.0

    Had a few problems with the electrical system which was really let down by the poor customer service from the Merc dealer, great cars, but awful after sales, especially from the service dept.

    I like it, and that's what counts.

    2 out of 5 2.0

    Not the most comfortable in its class and I feel the seats could recline more than they do.
