While going through our inbox this afternoon we received two simultaneous emails, both of of which alerted us to the fact that the world's first photos of the 2008 Mercedes-Benz C-Class have emerged, showcased via the next C's official brochure.

Initially posted by Vivaki at the German Car Zone, the brochure depicts the 2008 C-Class from several angles as well as a final view of what the C's new interior will look like.

To learn more, keep scrolling to see some additional photos (click to enlarge), or head over to the German Car Zone for the full brochure.

A huge thanks to Vivaki for posting the pics, and a huge thanks to both Paul and The Artist for directing us to them.

UPDATE:  We've been informed that a gentlemen by the name of Gunni is the source of the brochure, so now you all know who to thank for debuting the C-Class photos ahead of the new model's official premier.  As for when the official 2008 C-Class details are revealed, if this Mercedes-Benz UK teaser page is any indication, January 19th is the big day. Thanks again to The Artist for the info.
