Hi all,
I'm very interested in buying a c250, after driving one and reading lots of reviews - I'm hooked.
I've narrowed it down to two cars:
1) 2012 C250 1.8 BlueEFF AMG Sport, 23k (auto)
2) 2010 C250 1.8 CGI BlueEFF Sport 44k (auto)
I did a little reading RE the cosmetic changes with the face-lift in 2011, but has there been any mechanical differences?
A few questions:
- What's the difference between CGI and non- CGI?
- Is it still the M271 engine in both cars?
- Is is still the same (I think 5G) autobox in both cars?
I read that the 5G autobox in the 2010 model is superior to the 7G auto box. There's a £3000 difference in price between the two, so quite a bit of money!
Any help would be very appreciated
