Mercedes C-Class C 200 SE
£299 per month with a £3,999 deposit (5.1 per cent APR)
Mercedes clearly means business with this deal. The C-Class is a tempting proposition, since you’ll struggle to find a rival with a stronger image, higher-quality interior and a better ride, at least on versions with smaller wheels. But the car isn’t perfect, its 2.1-litre diesel in particular being gruff and noisy. Standard equipment is good, although options are expensive.
