1997 Mercedes-Benz C-Class 180 Elegance review from UK and Ireland
What things have gone wrong with the car?
It started leaking oil 10 months after I bought it. I was in Germany at the time but fortunately had a German speaker with me and so I was able to get it fixed under warranty, although we had to visit 3 dealerships to do so!
General comments?
The car is a bit under powered but very comfortable. I have had experience of two dealers both of which have been totally incompetent which is why I'm unsure if I would buy another Mercedes.
