Mercedes C-Class gets special edition ‘Edition C’ & new C220 CDI 4MATIC

The Mercedes C-Class range is getting a new special edition model – the Edition C – with cosmetic and equipment upgrades and a new 4MATIC C-Class. The current model of the Mercedes C-Class has been around for a while and is due for an upgrade in 2014. But with a year to go before we get a new C-Class, Mercedes has launched the special edition ‘Edition C’ models to inject some new showroom appeal in the C-Class range.

Mercedes A 45 AMG goes off-road in the Desert (video)

The Mercedes A 45 AMG struts its stuff in the desert The Mercedes A 45 AMG is now starting to appear in small numbers on UK roads after buyers have been tempted to shell out nearly £40k for the quickest Mercedes A-Class there’s ever been.
