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...

Review of Mercedes C 220 CDI

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...

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...

Review of Tesco Effervescent Vitamin C

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...

Samsung C3050 - Brand New Budget Phone, Packed With Features.

Advantages: Tons of features, listed in review. Good sound quality, Easy to use, Small and Light. Cheap.
Disadvantages: Limited Ringtones, bland schemes.

... Samsung C3050 This is a relatively new phone on the market, being released around February this year. I've had this phone since May, so I have been using it for a reasonable amount of time and have a good idea on all of the features and reliability. Looks The phone has the usual Samsung looks, with Samsung pasted very clearly above the screen on the phone. How many people need reminding what make their phone is every time they look at it? I suppose most phones have this, but it is a bit annoying. The C3050 is stylish and easy to hold, it's design is a bit strange because it has two blocks of silver on the top and bottom, but the case itself is black. Above the bold SAMSUNG sign, there is a tiny speaker if you look hard enough. Below the screen is the general left right up and down keypad, which is a large rectangle...

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

...cheap little thing called the Samsung C300. I paid a measly £20 for it from Argos because of my deliberations over a contract so I just wanted a cheap pay as you go mobile to tie me over until I made (or make) that decision. I?m with Virgin Mobile (hehe funny name) and, although this particular phone is no longer available on their website you could purchase the Samsung C300 for as little as £12.99. I feel like I?ve been robbed! WHO ARE SAMSUNG AND WHAT ARE THE BASIC FEATURES OF THE C300? Samsung are a company that you will no doubt have at least heard of before, even if you?ve never used or purchased any of their products. Born from a tiny store in the early 1930s, Samsung are now one of the leading brands in all things electronics, from the said mobile phones to televisions, cameras and computers. Samsung are perhaps best known...

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...

NAD C315 BEE

Advantages: Powerdrive-S technology, No genre preference, Great sound quality, Very low distortion
Disadvantages: no phonogram (record player) input

...The NAD C 315 BEE stereo integrated amplifier beat the Cambridge Azur 340A SE when the british magazine hi-fi world put them against one another. The C315 BEE received 5 globes out of 5 (in Jan 2008 issue). Sound quality is incredible at this price. Performs beyond specs due to Powerdrive-S and Soft Clipping. Great stereo separation. In my opinion this is by far the best stereo amp at this price! Better than Denon 500 PMA and Cambridge 540A SE. If you want a good amp do yourself a favor and give this a listen. Beware this is a Stereo integrated amp, so there is no surround. Good Bass. Tone Defeat switch so you can bypass the Treble and Bass control circuits if you're not using them. There is also a Balance control but like the Bass and Treble control you probably don't need them. Bass has a slight bloom, not enough to be...

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...
