Mercedes-Benz C300 2011 2011 Q&As

Check out real-world situations relating to the Mercedes-Benz C300 2011 2011 here, particularly what our experts have to say about them.

Mercedes-Benz C300: What are common problems or faults?

There is nothing that should cause them any concern, the C-Class ’Benz is a well-engineered and well-built car. While they are generally reliable they can, like any car, breakdown and need repairs. Servicing can be expensive, you pay for the name. Otherwise, any common faults are likely to show up on our problems page.

Options for retirement car?

If you're retiring and you have the cash, you should reward yourself. I would recommend the excellent Mercedes-Benz C-Class, but not a diesel unless you do more than 30,000km a year.

Run flat tyres on new Mercedes-Benz

Fitting run-flats is a commercial decision by the company, no doubt it saves money. Not having a spare is not a massive issue for most Australians who rarely stray too far from civilization, but obviously can be for someone who does venture into remote parts. Those people would probably be wise to carry a spare.
