- C180 Kompressor Estate Black, Alfa Romeo Spider Quadrifoglio Rosso
Hi,
I'm new to this forum and new to Mercedes. I recently bought a C180K estate, when I had no intention of even buying a car that day; I was showing my brother around car dealerships local to me. What I can already say is that my purchase has proved to be a fortuitous one: I am very enamoured with the car, and it does everything I need it to, and with some style.
It is the largest car I have ever owned, having usually run sports cars, (I have a classic Alfa Spider), but it is an excellent balance of size and practicality for myself, family and springer spaniel.
So far, the only issue I have had is a collision with a pheasant at 80mph, (the car, not the pheasant), which has obliterated the front grille - but at least it gives me the chance to restyle the front in a more positive way than the pheasant managed.
