About 6.7 litres per 100 km, or AED 6,888 a year at 2,000 km a month at today's pump price.
Mileage varies a lot
Half of the used C-Classs for sale show between about 49,000 km and 154,000 km. Compare cars with similar mileage, not only the same year.
There is room to negotiate
43% of C-Class listings have already cut their price.
