Unique image, excellent value for money, more character than rivals, good Mercedes diesel V6.
HEMI thirst, quality not on par with rivals, image may put some off.
The 300C is an executive car like no other and will divide opinion. We love it - others will hate it.
Many predicted catastrophic depreciation (loss in value) but the 300C has already proved to be an appealing second-hand purchase, and values have remained far firmer than anyone thought they would. The diesel's the most desired option, of course, but there is a (small) following for the others, and Touring estates are particularly popular. All cars of this size lose value fast in their first three years, however, and prices are beginning to ease up now that more 300Cs are coming to the end of their initial lease deals and becoming available.
