Or just go for a GL/ML if you want four wheel drive. For those that don't know, the GLA, GLC and GLE are A, C and E class related, hence the final letter.
One thing I find quite a bit sad is the eradication of 6 cylinder diesels from the range. Everything of any note seems to be a '220' or '250'.
The idea is the introduction of the AMG Sport range will fill this gap in the near future.
Most models will then have a 450 AMG Sport 3.0 v6 twin turbo petrol variant.
The first hand reports I've had of the C450 AMG Sport 4Matic is real world driving it's as quick as a C63 due to the 4wd system and the way it puts down the power.
There will be a GLC450 AMG Sport in the not too distant future.
This engine effectively makes the 3.0 diesel redundant.
One of the reasons I switched from the C class to the CLS is that the CLS has the 3.0 litre diesel, which is as smooth as silk compared with the 2.1 litre lump.
I hope that this trend of downsizing their engines stops soon,
Unlikely - it's driven by emissions. Manufacturers are going to be fined for exceeding average emissions targets.
A quick perusal of the German and French MB sites reveals they have a choice of a GLC 250 4MATIC 211ps PETROL engined model which is actually slightly cheaper [ in the France or Germany line ups ] than the 2 diesel models offered in the UK.

As above, I managed to get the C450 round Estoril quicker than the C63, just because I could get the power down. We couldn't turn the ESP off and it just kept cutting in on the C63. C450 arrives in coupe, estate and saloon from June.
You just gotta live the way threads diverge...lol.
