CDI 250 Saloon Sport
Hi everyone I am hoping to play my full role in the fora.

Just about to pick up my first ever Mercedes! New C Class CDI 250 Sport. Cavansite Blue, Al Paca half leather interior, 7 G-tronic, dynamic handling package and Online command system. It's like being a kid again!!!

Someone want to tell me just how good they are? I don't want any bad news

Hello and welcome to the forum.

Excellent choice for your first Mercedes.
 
Hi Manhole and welcome. I'm delighted with my c250 after three months and 5.5k miles - very comfortable and drives well but I'm sure you already know that! Build quality seems good too. Overall, I find it difficult to criticize but my minor niggle list is as follows: (a) the steering set up seems overly sensitive to camber which I find mildly annoying on long runs, especially noticable in comparison to my previous Audi (b) the engine takes quite a while to warm up (even for a deisel) but I expect this to be less so once the weather heats up (c) I'm still unsure whether my stast/stop ECO system is working properly - see a helpful earlier post on here for more info regarding a batch of faulty battery thermometers (d) the trip computer MPG readout isn't very well calibrated and does not update itself very dynamically (e) the twin 5-spoke rims get filthy very quickly - I'm now wondering whether I should have gone for the 7-spoke ones and (f) I don't like the sunglass holder. So a pretty short list. Good luck with yours and please update us once you've had some fun.
