25t

We are looking to buy a car for our 16 year old son. He not an average teenager; he plays varsity sports, makes good grade, and for some reason he always aires on the side of caution. We were comparing these two car they are both under $17k and under 29k miles. Are their any major difference...

Sport. How good/bad is either? I have heard that the Benz while a nice car is very expensive with regards to repairs when something breaks. I have heard/read that it seems the Volvo is the better value. Need some help/advice. The Volvo I am looking at is a 2005. The Benz is 2007

I am a new driver, i know the main functions of the car, I just do not understand how to use the crusing control. We plan on going to the beach this summer, so Im sure I will benefit it when going ont he highway for 5 hours. thank you for your help!
