When my Mini Cooper was written off a few years ago by a hopeless old XC-90 driver, Motability gave me (through Europcar) a brand spanking new C-class Mercedes with just eleven miles on the clock. The thing was like a bloody battleship compared to my Cooper! Couldn’t wait to hand it back several weeks later when my new Motability car was delivered.
I had an E-Class company car in 2005 and had no issues with it (other than a poor seat that gave me back ache) and I had a C-Class for a weekend around 5 years ago and enjoyed driving it, but I don’t like the toggle switches in this GLB (not as natural to use as a push button) and the Multimedia system has a very poor user interface IMO and is a right faff to use and not at all intuitive. Perhaps it’s just me. I might get more used to it when I drive it more during the week.
