Want to know everything there is to know about this car?

In their own words

Didn't actually buy this car was a courtesy car I was given after an accident. MPG was poor, engine performance also poor. 9 gears I think is way too many, although you don't feel the changes. On a long motorway commute sticking at 70mph with quite a few 50mph zones also managed to get around 50mpg. Car lacked any character, just felt like an over sized tool to do a job. Felt clumsy around town, felt more at home on the motorway, once up to speed. Electric handbrake is in the most stupid of positions which meant holding the foot on the brake. Didn't feel like it was a car I would want to own. Was happy to give it back when the time came. Driving it I either felt like a taxi driver or a funeral director. Neither of which give you much credit. Safe to say it put me off buying a mercedes myself.

Does the car do everything you expected it to do?

Found that had to keep switching between settings with the auto box. Economy way too under powered for entering motorways. Felt like car weighted an extra tonne with eco set.
