Used 1999 Mercedes-Benz C-Class C280 4dr Sedan Consumer Reviews
Fun to drive
I love my C280. It handles like a dream, small turning radius, lots of power, not too big, not too small. Have had some electrical problems ( replaced starter, alternator, fuel guage after 50K mi). I will probably buy another small MBZ or the new BMW 330I
my 280
Not a single problem or adjustment since purchase. On trips the car averages over 26mpg.

Value & Elegance
The C280 is undeniably part of the Benz tradition of exellence and luxury. From it's solid construction to its ability to turn heads around, the C280 is the best small Benz yet.
Proud owner of MB C280
I love my baby. It's got classical beauty, retaining the more traditional looks of its forefathers (not the funky looking headlights of later generations). Extremely reliable and built to last. This is not a race car but one designed for comfort driving (a requiste for those long hours spent behind the wheel in rush hour traffic). Smooth handling.
Solid Performer
Fine build quality and wonderful handling. The seats are a tad hard and the car could use a few more cc's when you really need the power, but it is an excellent car for the money. The car remains tight even at 135K miles with not a single rattle or squeak. Car pulls effortlessly to 95mph. Over 100 engine noise becomes noticeable tho.
