2000 Mercedes-Benz C-Class C280 review from North America
"The finest production automobile made today!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Luckily, not a single thing!
General comments?
Excellent car in all categories. Typical Mercedes-Benz in terms of quality. These cars are notoriously expensive to maintain owning to parts costs and general dealership labor rates. However, all things considered, I think this is one of the best production autos built today.
I traded in my old 1996 C280 and bought my current C280 in Germany (via the European Delivery Program). I fully plan to do the same for my next Mercedes-Benz!
