Mercedes C180K BlueEfficiency CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 5

Ben Whitworth, 08 December 2008 19:00

Mercedes has been a little slow off the mark with its environmental campaign, but hopes it range of new BlueEfficiency cars – spearheaded by the C180K BlueEfficiency on test here – will do for emissions, economy and public perceptions what EfficientDynamics has done for BMW. And there’s no price penalty for opting for the BlueEfficiency model – in fact at ...

Mercedes ML320 CDI Sport facelift (2008) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 5

Mercedes McLaren SLR 722 Edition CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 5

Anonymous, 02 February 2007 03:46

Are you telling me this beast has 722bhp under the bonnet? Not quite. The 722 – or the Mercedes-Benz McLaren SLR 722 Edition to quote its full name – is a limited run of tweaked SLRs, named after the Mercedes 300 SLR that British racing legend Stirling Moss and his co-driver Dennis Jenkinson drove to victory in the 1955 Mille ...
