What owners say
"Overall, drivers really love their 1995 Mercedes-Benz C-Class for its impressive power, reliability, and luxurious features. Many have praised the car's strong performance, solid build quality, and comfort on the road. However, some drivers have mentioned that the maintenance costs can be quite high, particularly for parts and repairs, which can be a downside to owning such a classic vehicle."
Built like a tank, handles well decent gas milage, still looks good, reliable if taken care of
November 17, 2025This was my first car and I bought it when it was 10 years old with 190K miles. Being an inexperienced and still-learning driver I drove this hard and heavy, and even with the high miles it was the same the day I sold it as the day I bought it. I would absolutely buy another.
July 17, 2012I love my 1995 Mercedes C280. Everything about it is perfect. It runs like a dream. It is a sound car that makes me feel safe in the road. The reliability it provides is why I bought it. It is good on gas with options that are easy to understand and operate. It is loaded for a 1995 with leather, moonroof and even a 6 cassette changer. It offers a roomy ride for me and my occupants with a good sized trunk suitable for groceries or other shopping needs. The built in first aid kit in the backseat was ahead of it’s time. I love my 28 year old car and will hopefully be driving it another 28 years.

March 1, 2023It is a great comfortable and reliable car. The build quality is superb, like in any other Mercedes-Benz. The running costs are very lov, the haven't been any troubles with it, and it is economic to. I think the AMG front on my car, makes it look a bit sportier than normal :) It is a brilliant autobahn cruiser.
September 11, 2008Have owned for close to two years now, and has been a GREAT car, fast, practical, and doesnt attract attention.
January 5, 2008i like the speed and cofort, plus stability on the road but i hate its huge expenses on parts , genuine parts for mercedes are not easy to get in this country and where u can get them they are expensive
November 3, 2014It's an amazing car,I totally love it,and truly have respect for the time when Mercedes was still building cars,like it used to...Maybe not so much now,unless they go through some of the tuners afterwards.Over all,it's a car I wouldn't replace for a long time,unless the engine blows-up or something....
August 8, 2007This was our first Mercedes, my wife said she was getting a Mercedes and am I really glad she did because I loved this car it had gobbs of power for the highway and the ride was fantastic. This car was built like a tank very solid feel and great build quality. If I had any complaints, it would only be some slightly than higher maintenance cost even with me doing my own. All in all great car I still catch myself looking at clean examples out on the road and think about getting another even with having a newer c class.
September 6, 2012Performance: acceleration is FAST when u put ur foot down..but be careful at the corners Build quality: strong and powerful like a Mercedes Appearance: nothing is changed..the same as it is from the factory Fun factor : racing with ur friends
August 18, 2010I recently purchased a used C280. I have found this car to be very reliable, with excellent pep despite it's age. I will advise other's to make sure to have your vehicle inspected by a certified mechanic that specializes in german vehicles prior to purchasing, because repairs are extremely expensive. The interor and exterior on my car was like new, but because the person I purchased it from failed to perform routine, age appropriate maintenance, my car required alot of servicing. Be sure to look underneath the car, as I learned the hard way that the C class is known to have a problem with the headgasket leaking. This repair will run you $2200-$3200 easy. But I loved the look and performance of the car so, much, i decided to invest in it.
