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

In their own words

High quality car with soft touch finishes and furnishings. Front seats are sublimely supportive and hold you in place without restriction. Adjustment is infinately variable with easily controlled electric buttons. Ride quality over british roads deteriates with tyre wear, so keep an eye on tyre pressures. 'SPORT' mode can destroy mpg economy but 'eco' mode is adequate for everyday use. Rear camera essential as rear park assist a little slow to react Alloy wheels can corrode and are expensive to repair Tyres are 245 front and 265 rears on AMG line with full set of OEM Bridgestones costing £600+ Engine can seem noisy compared to rivals but car interior is well soundproofed Gearchange is via stalk on steering column. This can be confusing when hopping from convential cars to Mercedes Media system is showing its age against more modern cars but its adequate and easy enough to master. Would I buy another? I love the MB brand and quality. I think an E or S class (petrol) coupe next for me as I no longer need the space, but I would buy MB approved used for warranty and peace of mind

How reliable do you find the car?

Self levelling suspension developed a leaky pipe - fixed under MB warranty ECO battery developed fault -repleced under MB warranty

Does the car do everything you expected it to do?

Exceeded my expecation on fuel economy on motorway runs Cavernous luggage area with rear seats folded AMG version provides much nicer steering wheel and front end styling Very responsive in 'S' mode
