New C-class sticks it to the 3 series

http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/images/...o_215595_5.jpg "Sport mode transforms the car’s character, though, with the dampers stiffening, making the Merc even more focused. Throttle response is more eager, the steering weights up and offers greater feedback, and body movement is virtually eliminated. The setting also improves the auto box; it snaps through its ratios faster and holds on to gears to provide more engine braking. The C-Class is a big step up over the previous car – now, it can give the BMW 3-Series a run for its money in terms of driver appeal. Yet at the same time, long trips won’t leave occupants tired. So it doesn’t matter whether you prefer the comfort-biased or sporty model – either way, we think the new C-Class is guaranteed to be a big hit" Check the rest of the pics and article at: Mercedes C-Class | First Drives | Car Reviews | Auto Express |
If it is like this version, it will only be sticking it's head in the dirt.

By the way I thought this idiot was banned. Has he been reborn as MercLover? |
Ah, I see (AL) the cut and paste specialist is back !!
Don’t know why but it reminds me of the current Ford Mondeo, especially that lower front grill mesh and the fog lights, Interior does as well a bit !! Richard |

So could it be a photoshop of an astra-mondeo? ;)
I was wondering round the motorshow today and couldn't see anything interesting at all from the germans, in fact I nearly slipped into a coma at the audi stand. If it wasn't for the startegically placed Lambos, I would have been stretchered out. |

Looks good. TBH I thought thought the old C-Class was a cracking car...... totally let down by appalling build quality. Lets hope this one is better.

Reminds me of that Kia saloon
|
Its bizzarre how there are arguments on here about cars that nobody has owned or driven yet. I drove the old C class and loved it, my father in law had one, it was pretty troublesome he replaced it with a an A4 (brand new) and the gearbox went after 2 weeks !
I preffered the Merc to drive but they are both very nice. Need to remember just how good these cars all are, compare the new Mondeo to the Sierra that Ford was producing just 15 years ago |
going out to seville for the official launch and 3 days training on it next month, the pictures don t do it justice at all. saw one last week at M-B world at brooklands.
i drive a current c320 cdi, it is a genuinely fast car. cant wait til may for my new demo one to arrive (hopefully). |

Bit weird really. The styling of that Merc resembles a Lexus... which has for years been fairly obviously copying Merc :lol1:
