C350 petrol hybrid

Does anyone here have a c350e petrol hybrid. I've been looking at making the move but do you get anywhere near the 100+ mpg ?

Regards

Thanks for the replies. The long thread certainly makes interesting reading. This car will be obtained through work and from the tax calc at 7% BIK it looks like about £92 a month on the basic car, however this rises a lot over the next two years.

At the moment my current car drinks fuel stuck in traffic and school runs but gets 42mpg on the motorway. I figure I can do the town and school runs on electric and then look at the other modes for when I hit the motorway. Free charging at work too.

Will probably make the move and get a Brilliant Blue Estate but with just the default equipment to keep the tax down. Although the extra 360 camera could be useful but I cant help but think the novelty would wear off after awhile. Ive never had a car with reversing sensors so the kit on this car will keep me busy for awhile. I saw on the internet there is a 2018 update coming with what appears to be a full LCD dash (rather than just the tablet thing). Ill investigate if waiting until I put the order in will get me one of those.

Can I simply plug the charger into a normal 3 PIN plug that I have in my garage or do I need something a bit stronger?
