The C-Class is a top choice, class leading interior and very expensive looking for modest money.
But the sales numbers are inflated, in the way Holden and Ford used to do by instructing dealers to register cars to get their bonuses. As evidenced by the regular "demo sales". I cant see why each dealer "needs" to have something like 12 C200 sedans in white, black or silver as "demo's"

They are quite compact ( and that is being kind) compared to say a Falcon. But the resale is better than most. |

The market has surely changed though. I remember when the frumpy Avalon was released and it was a sales disaster selling 'only' 2000 a month.

Mercedes is pushing c class. They do register a lot them selves and it's the choice of dealer demo / loan car as it's easy to stock
