The question
The new C-Class Mercedes has option of a 1.6 diesel engine with 115hp. Is that a little weak for a big car? What do you think?

Hi Oliver,
Actually, it's really good. True, not the fastest car in history, but peppier than you'd expect, smooth and very economical. Actually suits the car rather well, but if you're doing low mileage, have a look at a C 180 petrol model, which uses a 1.6 turbo petrol engine. Well worth checking out.
