hi
I am looking to buy c180 petrol or C220 diesel, looking at 2011 or 2012 models less than 35k miles done. This is my first MB. My budget is around 13k , so most realistic is C180. I am doing 11-12k per year and about 6.5-7k is motorway travel. I am not sure if higher price for C220 justified by saving in fuel, road tax. At the moment I am thinking it for keeping it for 4-5 years.
Are there any known issues with these two models , any real mpgs for the two,
( on paper c180 42 combined, c220 55+ combined). What about the servicing costs? Any advice appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
