That is not to say that Mercedes doesn't get it wrong occasionally - its dalliance with R-Class, is one example - but such is not the case with the new C-Class.
This may be the Mercedes version of the “people's car” but this time around it has not shirked at all.
The styling is sharp, the 3.0-litre 170kW V6 is both strong and smooth and the seven-speed auto appears eminently happy to be associated with it. The C-Class, in its Avantgarde guise, is stylishly fitted out with superb seats and a seriously rich feel to the general trim.
Ride comfort is excellent, the suspension is compliant and offers a good balance between highway cruising and backroad bruising.
Steering feel - for a Mercedes - is quite good with a nice progressive weighting.
