Used 1996 Mercedes-Benz C-Class for Sale near Auburn, CA

Just look at this cute, medium sized thing. Its what every family needs, not to big, not too small, its just right. It has enough power to overtake and scramble up hills, but at the same time it has wallet-friendly fuel usage. Lots of little extras make driving more fun, and as always, Mercedes build quality leaves nothing to be desired.

excellent ride, suspension perfect, comfortable and spacious. Good on fuel

I would recommend this car to all my friends.... It is the best car for theat price

The Mercededs C220 was the successor to the popular 190e and provided Mercedes Benz with an entry model to the brand. While providing many amenities, this particular lacked power. Ride quality is great (even now at 200,000+ miles), but handling is somewhat compromised at the limit. Arguably some would say that this type of vehicle is not used to such adventures. On the brighter side, fuel economy is great. The vehicle is 12 years old, and gets a decent 30-32 miles per gallon.

Lives up to the Mercedes reputation for excellent build quality and comfort. This car hardly sniffs the gas, but when you put your foot down you can tell why. Still, I'm no drag racer, and all the bells and whistles make up for it. It handles well in the dry and the wet, but you have to get used to a bit of understeer and some shaky response from the power steering. When pressed it stops on a dime with comparatively smooth ABS. Some things in the design of this car confuse me, like the button that makes the rear headrests collapse, or the one that fires the ashtray over your left shoulder (seriously), but for the most part it has been a pleasure to own and drive.
