I had a 64 plate C200 Diesel B Class yesterday, Nice quiet engine compared to my 62 Reg C Class Sport Plus, but not for me, I didn't like the body roll and front wheel drive, nice high up driving position. It was an auto like my C Class, it felt a bit cheaper inside. It had 18" wheels so felt the bumps just as my C class but it felt unstable on cornering, the wifie said it makes her feel sick. I have booked up a new C class for 3 weeks time.
 
I had a B180CDi Sport as a courtesy car and I was pretty stunned by how all-round awful it was.

They should be great family cars, but the ride was horrendous and I agree that it felt cheap inside. The "iPad" type display is just nasty. The one I had was a manual, which didn't help - made it feel like driving a truck.
