Vehicle Detail
A rare combination of class and economy. This great little sedan gets 28/30 mpg and Mercedes recommends oil change only every 10,000 miles - a real money saver. Sturdy build but drives like a sports car and turns on a dime. I do U-turns in places you would not believe. I am an older lady, and have driven her with care. Now I am going to hit the road in an RV, so some lucky person will enjoy the next 100,000 or more miles of driving. Minor defects: one small dent on passenger rear fender and one scratch on front fiberglas fender. She has been parked under cover and serviced regularly. Quote from Edmunds.com certified test driver: "From the outside, the C280 looks exactly like what it is: a small near-luxury sedan oozing style and class....Then I realized this little sedan was not just a stodgy old Mercedes image car. It was much more. The car was good-looking, well built and sporty to boot....I noticed that there was a bit of a lag time from when I pushed the gas pedal and when the Benz lurched forward with a tremendous surge of power....After two weeks with the small German sedan, however, I'd gotten used to it. Driiving the C280 was pure bliss, whether screaming down the highway or snaking along a winding road. Visibility was excelent, steering was responsive and the suspension made it feel like the car was floating over the road....Overall, the car wins accolades for its solid build, sporty powertrain and soothing, luxurious interior. Idid not want to give this car back." An you will not want to either.
