Ordered my 2022 C-Class- First time Mercedes guy

[Bryantp72]

New to the forum. Just ordered a 2022 C-Class and it should be here in May. Could not decide between a 2022 Lexus IS 350 Sport or the C-Class. Had read a ton of information on both cars and the looks of the interior and the price drove me to the C-Class. I have concerns on reliability though. I came on the forum to find out from other C class owners if they are pleased with their cars and what problems, if any to expect. Any info will help, Thanks

Presumably TX - not the First World War village, mostly prefabs between Longbridge and Northfield, Birmingham. Bult by Herbert Austin, who created the Austin Motor Company at Longbridge in 1905, when he needed to accomdate additional workers during the First World War when his factory became involved in making tanks and aircraft.

Still hot and humid. Traffic is awful. But it's a great city with tons to do

Ive had a C200 2.0l since 2018. The comfort and ride quality is so much better than SLK before ( but it is on 16 in rims specifically) Interior quality and finish good. The 9 speed box good and does 40 mpg on journeys not on the motorway. Not so good- paint easily marked and seems soft, random faults with TPSS, sat nav voice actuation practically useless, self parking has only worked once, several recalls, dealers poor ( only used for recalls ). Won't buy another as now hybrid with tiny engine and MB have stopped caring about building cars well ( like 190e and W124) and just build lots of them
