1994 Mercedes-Benz C-Class Classic review from UK and Ireland
"Good car, but lacking the old MB quality"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Heater only blows hot air, can't turn heat off.
SRS sensor in steering wheel replaced. Light started flashing again 6 months later.
Headlight adjuster doesn't work.
General comments?
Build quality and materials seem to be not as good as my old '80s 230CE.
Very smooth and quiet engine.
Drives well although steering seems too light causing it to constantly pull to the incline of the road.
