need help to choose; C180 or C200?
First of all
I would like to say that I am new to the forum and currently own a w212 facelift E250 Bluetec. However I am considering to buy a W205 as a second car but this time don't want to overrate the car that I am going to buy. I live in Cyprus (little island in Mediterranean in case someone doesn't know) and we don't have wide network of motorways. My daily commute is max 80 km (around 50 miles) and has some hilly parts and 40% city driving. Many owners prefer C180 and dealer doesn't carry C200 and only accept it with orders. That's why I can't test drive the car to see the difference. In figures C200 looks good but don't know if it is necessary so I need some opinion in order to choose my new benz.

I've just bought a C180 Bluetec auto and having changed from a C 200 W204 I can honestly say that it is every bit as willing to go as the W204 was. Neither would be the sportiest option but from the driving conditions you describe I don't think the 180 will disappoint.
