Pros & cons
Refined comfort, good choice of engines, versatile, great equipment levels, decent boot
Fiddly audio-navigation system, cabin doesn't feel particularly premium
Mercedes-Benz C-Class Estate (08-14) rivals
Overview
The C-Class is a roomy, premium estate with high levels of comfort, safety and equipment. Competition is tough and its main alternatives are BMW’s versatile 3-Series Touring and Audi’s popular A4 Avant. However, the C-Class stands up well to both. It blends potent performance and good looks with interior refinement and a big boot. There’s a wide choice of engine, trim and transmission combinations available.
It’s evident that Mercedes-Benz has thought the design through well and there are many practical solutions that make C-Class easy to live with, it’s a shame then that the cabin lacks the upmarket feel you’d expect of a car with this price tag.
