Hi
I am about to purchase a 08 plate C180K SE (I know, I can only afford the cheapest one from a carsupermarket and would value all the enthusaists' opinons on this excellent forum before I take my first plunge on a MB
1. With the new C-Class, would you guys say alot of the rust and unreliability problems have been ironed out? People keep trying to convince me BMW is better
2. I have heard that dealer servicing can be astronomical. Bearing in mind its a one year Merc, surely theres not much to go wrong. Should I go with an indie or will that effect my 3 year warranty?
3. Any Indie that can service to manufacturer's spec so as not to void the warranty that anyone can recommend in the Coventry area?
4. Bearing in mind its only a C180 hence a 1.8 engine, should I go with manual or auto? Thx
