2024 Mercedes-Benz C-Class Estate AMG Line Diesel Hybrid

Description

So, I’ve been looking at this 2024 Mercedes-Benz C-Class Estate for a while now — not because I’m trying to impress anyone, but because it just feels right. It’s got that sleek Obsidian Black Metallic finish, and honestly, the way it sits in the driveway gives off a calm, confident vibe.

It’s a diesel-hybrid, so it runs on that 2.0L diesel-electric setup — 217 bhp, which is enough to make you feel like you’re driving something special without needing to go full throttle. Fuel economy is actually pretty solid at 60.1mpg, which is a big plus if you’re ever driving around the city or commuting.

Inside, it’s got all the modern bits you’d expect — 12.3-inch digital dash and an 11.9-inch touchscreen with MBUX, which makes navigation and music a breeze. I’ve actually used the “Hey Mercedes” voice command a few times, and it works pretty well. The seats are AMG-style, with adjustable height and lumbar support — good for long drives. The front seats are heated, and there’s even a memory function for when you get back in the same setup.

The 18-inch AMG 5-spoke alloy wheels look sharp, and the suspension is lowered 15mm — it feels more planted, especially on bumpy roads. I’ve noticed the parking assist and blind spot warnings kicking in when I’m maneuvering in tight spots, which is handy. The active bonnet that lifts during a crash is a little odd to see, but it’s there — just another safety thing.

I’m keeping it in Corby, North Northamptonshire, so it’s not far from where I live. I’ve only driven it a couple of times, but it’s been smooth and quiet. It meets Euro 6 standards, so it should be fine in ULEZ and clean air zones — which is a real plus around here.

The price is £31,041 — yeah, that’s a bit steep, but I’m not selling it to get rich, just because it’s a solid, reliable car with good features and a nice feel.

If you’re interested, I can pop over and show it — no pressure, just a quick chat. I’m not pushing anything, just sharing what I’ve got.

Mertrux Truck & Van has been around since 1971 and does a lot of Mercedes-Benz work in the East Midlands. They’ve got a good team of techs who know their stuff, and all the cars go through a proper inspection before they’re handed over. I’ve seen the warranty details — it’s not just a basic one, it’s solid.

If you’re thinking about it, give them a call — 01332 290290 — they’ll sort you out. No sales pressure, just real advice.

It’s not the flashiest car, but it’s one I actually enjoy driving. And honestly, if you’ve ever wanted a Mercedes that’s not too loud, not too flashy, but still feels premium — this might be it.
