The C-Class Experience

Advantages: All the comfort of a Mercedes with the performance and control of top of the range exec
Disadvantages: Every features costs you money..if you have to pay BIK tax then you will be hurt by the CO2 levels

...As a driver of the C220 CDI Sport Auto (08) model I have to openly admit that this vehicle surpasses any of its rivals. As an employee of a fleet management company I have the benefit of being able to test drive most prestige vehicles and where the BMW 320 and Audi A4 finish the C220 CDI Sport is just beginning! Where to start... well from a purely astethic point of view the C-Class is a joy to behold. With a high specification sports body kit and 18" AMG alloy wheels the C220 CDI Sport is not only ideal for executive drivers but is also a stylish vehicle which appeals to almost any driver. Whilst the appearance of the vehicle is fantastic the drive is what really had me. Fast, reliable, and comfortable are just a few words to describe the C220 CDI Sport, but in addition to this the vehicle is an animal. When compared wiht the BMW...

BMW 325i SPORT - MY DAILY DRIVER

Advantages: STYLING, IMAGE, BUILD QUALITY, ATTENTION TO DETAIL
Disadvantages: LACK OF SPACE, EXPENSIVE SPARES/SERVICING

...Last year, I replaced my 1999 BMW 323iSE saloon with a 2002 BMW 325i Sport. The 323iSE was a very impressive car, and my first from the marque. It gave me several thousand miles of problem free motoring. It was also surprisingly economical for a 2.5 litre straight 6 cylinder, generally returning an average of 31 miles per gallon. However, the mileage was getting a little high (80,000 miles in 3 years), so I looked again to BMW for its replacement. Originally, I was looking for a 330i, and it was in pursuit of just such a car that I found myself at a local franchise dealer. However, the 2000 330i I had intended to see there had not been prepared, and I was understandably disappointed. It was at this point that the salesman mentioned a low mileage 2002 BMW 325i Sport that he had in stock. Obviously as the car was newer, with a much...

C Boost!

Advantages: A great Vitamin product, easy to take, effective and cheap!
Disadvantages: Lid a bit hard to open on first go.

...Review of Tesco Effervescent Vitamin C. It?s the winter! And yes it?s inevitable that you or someone you know in the family will probably catch a cold have a virus, and let?s face it-with all that running around and partying we always do during the festive season we need to keep ourselves fit & healthy! I am very conscious of mine and my husband?s health and like us to eat healthy and be fit. With busy lifestyles this is of course easier said than done. I myself like taking vitamin supplements as a boost. I was advised by a health trainer to take Fish Oil supplements (being a woman), Echinacea for those times when you don?t feel that great, and Vitamin C for an immune system boost(especially at this time of year). I take a Fish oil supplement daily and an Echinacea or Vitamin C Effervescent tablet once a week. You can of course take...

THE BIG BAD C

Advantages: may help others
Disadvantages: it is personal to me and find it hard to write about

...need to come in to hospital to have a DNC (scrape) to get rid of all the crap that was now taking over my womb as if left it can become dangerous because the mole pregnancy can become cancerous. Now not only has my featus died but i now have the worry of weather or not it has turned to the big C. I would not know anything until after i have had the DNC done as they will then test what they have taken away from my womb and check to see if there are any C cells. I was admitted into hospital and had to stay in for three days because of risk of heamorraging after my DNC. The good news was that they had managed to take everything away that was in my womb which made me feel alot easier. On day two of my hospital visit came the big news that my results were back from the lab. The tests showed that i a mild form of cancer which could be...

MERCEDES C220 CDI HAS FLARE AND COMES ABOVE AVERAGE

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...

What is there to 'C' with this mobile phone?

Advantages: Cheap, good battery life, cheap, reasonable reception, did I mention cheap?
Disadvantages: Texting is a nightmare at times, there are a few design flaws to contend with

.... One of the best things about this phone is its battery life; with a talk time of over 7 hours and a standby time of 325 hours, it?s a phone that is very good for all of the simple stuff and the battery is pretty reliable if you want to stay connected with people. After getting a ridiculous amount of free texts from Virgin this past week, I?ve been text mad and after sending over fifty messages over the course of a couple of days, the battery had only just worn itself down to one bar (there are three battery bars in total). That to me is suitably impressive and undeniably one of the best features of the C300. Yet, in areas where there isn?t a fantastic signal, the phone fails epically in allowing you to have a decent phone conversation. Sure, the Pebl had its moments where the signal wasn?t at its best (man I?m making it sound like I...

C3 or not C3? Definitely not a C3!!

Advantages: Spacious, economical fuel consumption, looks good
Disadvantages: High repair and maintenance bills, unreliable, doesn't look so good on the back of a tow truck!

...After owning my little Citroen C3 for just over 6 years, the time has come to accept that this relationship has run its course and move on to better things. So I have finally part-exchanged my C3 and, hopefully, bid farewell to endless visits to the garage and constant repair bills! Like most relationships, this started so well. It was love at first sight when I set eyes on the C3, which was a relatively new model when I bought mine back in November 2002. The design of the car is quite funky for a small, relatively cheap hatchback or what is known as a 'super-mini'. It has an attractive curved exterior and looks very modern and stylish. The interior is even more eye-catching with its digital mileometer display, smart curved dashboard and adjustable steering column. It certainly looks like a more expensive little car than the price...

HND325 FULL DW and Hoover customer care

Advantages: Pass
Disadvantages: Design faults, some components not of merchantable quality

...This post reviews the HND325 FULL DW and also gives some insight into Hoover customer care. First is original letter of complaint (posted on Hoover's online contact page) and subsequent emails (copy of original letter removed): Dear Hoover, This letter by way of complaint: We purchased an Hoover dishwasher: HND325 FULL DW On 15.6.2006 from Currys. Our complaint is that the print on the control panel seems to be water soluble and has all but disappeared. We consider this to be a manufacturing fault and is unacceptable. Other problems we found with this machine : The two plastic clips on the front ends of the upper basket running gear are not sturdy enough to stay in the locked position, they often swivel allowing the basket to fall out of its track. On the first occasion when this happened there were several items...

**Perfect Picture on the C902**

Advantages: Amazing camera, extra fetures, sleak and sexy
Disadvantages: Small buttons, a little slow

...**INTRODUCTION** I have had this phone for just over a month now and I have only just decided whether it is my friend or not. I am with the phone company 3 and have a contract with them. For the past 4 years. Last month my last phone was due an upgrade as I had had my previous phone for 18 months (which was also a Sony Ericsson). I decided to choose the Sony Ericsson C902 mainly because I new it looked good and also I have never had a bad experience with the brand. I like to stick to brands that I know and trust when it comes to technology. So?. did the phone live up to my expectations??.. Here you will find out? **LOOK AND DESIGN** The design of this phone is very sleek and sexy. The size is 4.3 x 1.9 x 0.4 inches and it only weighs 107g. Which makes it very light and small enough to fit in your pocket without it being noticed...

Versatile vitamin C

Advantages: Vitamin C is a useful everyday vitamin to take, even if you use a synthetic version
Disadvantages: None

...Vitamin C is more commonly known as ascorbic acid, because it cannot be stored in your body for any length of time its essential that you have an intake of Vitamin C daily. There are many companies that produce their own version of the vitamin but I feel that Boots the chemist offer good value for money with their chewable version. Boots have packaged this product in a silver grey plastic container and the label is orange and white. The carton has a screw top that has been adjusted to make it difficult for children to open. Each container holds fifty 1000mg orange flavour chewable tablets. The tablets cost £4.39 for fifty, which works out at just 8p for a daily dose. If you use your Boots Advantage card you will get 16 points for this purchase. Boots chewable Vitamin C tablets are fine for children aged 12 and above and adults. They...
