I'm thinking of getting one next year; so I've been getting e-mail alerts off Auto Trader, etc. (I've moved away from looking at Ford Modeo Titaniums as comparible Mercs seem to cost not much more?).
My question is: what is the significance of the C200, C220, C250 numbers in the cars' model name?... Read more
