Well it's an 09 plate C220 CDi Blue-efficiency AMG Sport in White, auto with flappy paddles. Loaded with kit, Sat-Nav, DVD player, 6 disk auto changer, AMG kit, mats, seats, bumpers, alloys etc, auto fold mirrors plenty of lovely kit. I hate to admit it but, if I didn't love BMW's so much this would be staying at that'd go straight away. I have absolutely fallen in love with this car I really have :o
Anyway pictures:

If I don't get a buyer within a week I'll keep it for a year :y

Saw it in the flesh today (and Del !! :D :D) and what a lovely motor car that is! 8-) 8-) 8-) 8-) 8-)
It just encourages me to think that when I run out of Omega's I will go to a Merc :D :D ;).
-
The outside looks better than the previous model but, the interior looks really cheap and nasty
-
Think the centre dash cheapens the car, also I thought a car of this level would have HID's
-
really like the front end of that, very nice
-

Nothing cheap and nasty inside :y

I get to drive these all day long as Enterprise deal with Mercedes Assist. These are by far and away my favorite Merc. I have actually hired one tonight for my daughters prom, a C180 Kompressor in black with those AMG wheels and an off white half leather interior.
In my opinion it looks the mutts nuts :y :y :y

Would £78 and a kitkat clinch the deal, and let me drive it away Del? :D
Go on, you know you want to ::)
Nice looking car though, white does look good on certain cars, and I think it works on this shape C-Class.

If you can stretch an extra £2 and make it £80 then you've got yourself a deal :y

I think you'll just have to face it Dell - you've fallen for the Merc ;D ;D :y
Forget the 'E' class just go for the 'S' - you'll have all the room you need. 8-)

mate that merc is awsome! absolutely love it. not that i know about these things but do u lose any performance with it being diesel?
also the flappy padel gear shift...... can i ask if you put the car in auto and turned the sports or race mode on (or whatever equicalent it has) would u get the same performance in terms of acceleration and speed as u would with using the paddle shift? :):):)

BHP is 170, 0-60 is claimed to be 8 seconds I think, but timed via stopwatch and verified by GPS, 0-60 was done in 7.86 seconds so it's way under quoted. This was done with ESP off and using flappy paddles. This box isn't the best with using tiptronic on the gearstick or via paddles, it's much better in full auto mode, but putting it in manual mode means you can have some serious sideways fun when it's twisty. To switch to paddles or gearstick shifting, you simply pull one of the paddles or move the gearstick. Or you have a button, C-S-M, Comfort, Sport, Manual, I'd say it's quickest in manual, but I haven't done a 0-60 run in auto sport so it's hard to tell really.
Here is a video of, of course my friend test driving the car :y
