I have a much older car (1986 190E), but if I am not mistaken I think
the current C class derives from the same chassis.

I personally am very happy with the 4 cylinder and PREFER it over the 6
in such a small engine bay. My pre purchase searching also seemed to
find many more problems with the 6 cylinder cars. That last bit could
just be luck.

I am very happy with my 4 banger and the reasonable mileage it gets.
It's not a power car, but that's ok for me.
