Advantages: SMOOTH RIDE, HANDLES WELL , PRESTIGE BADGE Disadvantages: NIGGLES CAN BE EXPENSIVE ,BUY THE FACELIFT MODEL
When I purchased the Merc back in late summer I did a 200 mile round trip as the spec I was looking for at the right price could not be found in my town.I stumbled upon an Avantgarde 2001 y plate model with full stamped history at 80,000 miles on the clock and with the blue paintwork it was exactly what I was looking for at £4,800. It was cheaper than most of the first newer shape C-classes by about a grand so well worth the travel out up to Liverpool from a guy with a debt problem......hope hes got things sorted !!
Anyway, I had owned two A-CLASS Mercs and new what too expect from the larger C- class.The overall stance of the car always looked good with that Mercees badge popping up on the bonnet and I knew my nieghbours had a peek out of the curtains when I first parked it on the drive. This marque has always had an air of class ...
Advantages: Does the job Disadvantages: Doesn't shred 6 pages as stated, very noisey, can't cope with credit cards
but I feel that you need to consider:
1) How much are you going to be using it?
2) What volume of paper are you going to be subjecting it to?
3) Is it just paper you want to shred or is it staples and CD?s too?
4) How much are you willing to spend?
All things considered we set our budget at around £40 (as that seems to be the price of most decent shredders these days) and we took ourselves down to Staples. We wanted a shredder that would be able take around 4 sheets of paper at a time because we tend to let our paper build up before using the shredder and we wanted something that we could put staples into as well. This is very important as shredders that are not built to accept staples and could break if deposited into the shredder.
