Mercedes-Benz CE-Class Cabriolet 77-
  • Economy

    Value

    4 out of 5 4.0

    A lot of car for not a lot of money.

    Costs

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Fuel consumption is high, but independent specialists keep servicing costs down.

  • On the road

    Driving

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Very smooth drive, even with the Sportline package and 18-inch wheels.

    Performance

    4 out of 5 4.0

    For size/weight of car quite good. Throwable on twisty roads.

  • Living with it

    5 out of 5 5.0

    With sports package and large AMG wheels (elegant rather than drug dealer) this 11-year-old lady still turns a lot of heads.

    Comfort

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Drive for hours and still feel fresh - rear passengers enjoy sculptured seats.

  • Security and Service

    Security

    2 out of 5 2.0

    OK for age of car - have had to fit aftermarket alarm, though this is so far untested.

    Service

    5 out of 5 5.0

    I have a local MB specialist whose service is excellent, and servicing costs are very reasonable.
