Want to know everything there is to know about this car?

  • Economy

    Value

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Not cheap, but great value and residuals considering what you are getting for your cash.

    Costs

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Averaging 29mpg and cheaper to insure than my old Bora V5 !!

  • On the road

    Driving

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Sharp and responsive; great grip enhanced by ESP trickery that keeps you on the black stuff.

    Performance

    5 out of 5 5.0

    150mph and 0-60 in 7 secs. Almost 200bhp with instant supercharged response makes this quick enough for most drivers.

  • Living with it

    Reliability

    5 out of 5 5.0

    It's a Mercedes... need one say more!

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Class, class and more class. Turns heads everywhere; especially with roof down.

    Comfort

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Top quality materials - leather, real aluminium trip and solid build. Bulletproof!

  • Security and Service

    Security

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Alarm and immobiliser, but no deadlocks. Tracker fitted for a bit more peace of mind.

    Service

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Impeccable if rather impersonal dealer service.
