Mook Posted February 24, 2015 Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 I've no doubt it's an awesome piece of kit and Merc have done their usual of upping the spec and performance on it. But the new C-Class looks like the squashed bastard child of a Ssang Yong Actyon (mind your eyes!) and a Rodius 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rachel Posted February 24, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 (edited) As Harris says - the outgoing model looked the business. I agree... As for a crisis - well, a lotto win and a desire for the G500 4x4^2 is my current definition of a crisis.

Scotty Posted February 24, 2015 Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 Gotta say I'm not a fan on the new looks. Great to see turbo's can be integrated so well that it's like a huge NA engine. Oh and now I want to go back to Portimao again. I thought 9 days there in the last few years was enough but it's not! hehehe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bazza_g Posted February 24, 2015 Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 As above, am not overwhelmed by the looks but *that* engine, the noise still seems present and correct plus the potential tuneability makes it very tempting... My main issue is there will not be the Coupe AMG until 2016... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garcon magnifique Posted February 24, 2015 Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 Save up and get yourself an AMG GT instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garcon magnifique Posted February 24, 2015 Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 So am I the only one who likes the looks of the new C Class? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bazza_g Posted February 24, 2015 Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 Save up and get yourself an AMG GT instead. Without going nuts on carbon bits or brakes it still comes out at £127k..... I was about to say that for that money I'd be in a SLS AMG but the cheapest one on PH is now £140k - about a year ago they were hovering around the £90-something mark...

patently Posted February 24, 2015 Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 That's a proper filthy librarian. My kind of car Don't like the iPad on the dash, though. Portimao looks lovely, I want to go there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biscuits Posted February 25, 2015 Report Share Posted February 25, 2015 Awesome drivetrain.... accountant looks. Hopefully the coupe will look more menacing. Loved Harris' review of all the techy bits... the size of the 6.2 pistons !!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torino101 Posted February 25, 2015 Report Share Posted February 25, 2015 So am I the only one who likes the looks of the new C Class? Nope. It's way more conservative than the outgoing model, but at the same time infinitely more sophisticated. I really like it. The rear is a bit meh, but the front is superb.
