Welcome to the forum mate, I think there there are 3 or 4 aussie C-class owners here, one of them owns a C280 as well. What sort of accessories are you thinking about? the dealership should be able to order any factory accessory for you.

Wind noise is due to large side mirrors made acc to EU stupid regulations,about the tyre noise which set do u have?

as for tire noise i havent really notcied much noise their

so what are you impressions on the c280
i was thinking of a c280 but ended up with the diesel due to economy

I guess Mercedes finally figured that they had hideous side mirrors for the C class, and they decided to slap the new mirrors that shares the same design as the new E and FL S-class into the C as MY09...
But where are the electric seats?is this even a luxury car?

What are you talking about - you have electric seats. If you want the memory function you have to pay extra for memory package.

my c class c220cdi has semi electric seats.i just love the car its fantastic little car

i actually dont see the reason to change the mirrors unless its to reduce wind noise i liked the design from the front view only the size is big but let me tell you it is very helpful to see the rear you see a lot....

I know I had two W204 C classes in the last two years. You really see much but the wind noise is something that really bothered me.

These new mirrors do make you see less but the wind noise is down. So in either situation it is a win - lose.

All of them are Avantgarde but this time I went with Avantgarde + AMG Sport package so it looks much sportier this time.

I want to do a review on Member car section but I get some error message. I contacted administrator and hope they will fix it soo so I can get the review up and running. Stay tuned.
