C320 cdi Sport (White) - owners views ?

[smillion]

I have been looking to upgrade my car after 6 years of ownership and will be making a decision on a C320 cdi Sport tomorrow. (White with Panoramic Roof). I have only driven the C220 cdi and was impressed but wondered whether there were any 320 cdi owners on the forum that could pass on any views and tips. Car is a 2008 model.

I should know better but I'll canvas opinion anyway - what do people think of the current trend back towards white cars (Howard any thoughts?)
I just fell in love with the white C class when I saw it, (18" AMG alloys and bodykit) and whilst I was looking for an older larger engined E class, it just seems so dated in comparison.

Anyway, owners views welcome

In the meantime I'll post tomorrow as to whether I go ahead and buy it.

As it stands, a glass or 2 of merlot suggests its a cert.!

Thanks

White looks very nice on the new sport.

Even saw a CL in white the other day and agian it looked good.

Funny as a few years ago white on a Merc, no chance.

Looks cool with the glass roof also as brakes the colour up.

I can only commnet that the E320Cdi is a very sorted car so in the C class it must feel very sporty.

It is certainly a trend to use white cars in the world of advertising or for car shows, but if you want a car that you can sell on after a few years, keep clear of white, not as popular as they would have you believe. (in the UK at least, always popular in warm climates)

White is the way to go....

And in this weather you get a grey one in no time at all, so two for the price of one?

Looks very classy on a C Class with Sport trim in my opinion

Hi i have a 320 cdi sport in black and i cannot recommend it highly enough great power and have had 41.4mpg on a 300 mile run which is really good i think.

Mine is a 08 reg but a 2009 model year ... hope for you it is has the harmon kardon sound system as it is amazing.

Car feels big from inside but actually is not that big

but all in all a great car

Thank you for the feedback and views. Very helpful as ever.

The car sold 30 minutes before I made the call and so now have three dealer groups including MB Direct looking for me.

Will keep you posted
