2015 C300 or 2016 TLX
Guys,
My brother is looking to replace his car and he is shopping around.
He is considering 2016 TLX or 2015 C300. We test drove both cars, and C300 standsout in the design department but TLX handled better.
Now the big big question is reliability? What’s your take on 2015 C300 reliability and cost of ownership? I am not asking about TLX since we found a lot of info here, thanks to many positive and negative threads
Thanks

I find the C-class to be way too small. Otherwise it's a solid ride as expected by Mercedes.

It's a bit smaller but my brother doesn't mind. I have no doubt it's a solid car but reliability is always an issue with German cars. We just want to make sure he doesn't spend half of his day arguing with dealer to fix issues lol

I'd definitely keep in mind that 2015 was the first model year of the new C-class. He should do his homework and find out what some of the issues may be.
