SMALL business buyers aspiring to the three-pointed star of Mercedes-Benz should take a serious look at the new Executive SE grade.
Available on the C-Class saloon and estates, it’s a real business special, featuring additional specification, value pricing and low company car tax. The Mercedes-Benz C-Class Executive SE features the Sport Grille – usually only found on Sport models – plus special 16-inch alloys and chromed exhausts.
Inside, the C-Class Executive SE features key specification for the C-Class as standard: the COMAND sat-nav and multi-media presentation unit which glides up from the dashboard, operated through the upgraded multi-function steering wheel.
Based on the C-Class SE C180 K BlueEFFICIENCY petrol model, the cost of the Executive SE is just a modest additional £660 – but the value gains are worth over £2200.
With fuel economy of 44.8mpg and CO2 emissions of 149g/km, the new Mercedes C-Class Executive SE is also highly tax-efficient. The saloon has a 17% company car tax banding for 2009/10, rising to 18% (10/11) and 19% (11/12).
