I guess it’s a W205 C class I’m seeing.

Do you know if it’s a pre facelift or facelifted one? And is a petrol or diesel? 200.000 km is not that much for a Benz. I usually drive them for about 250.000 km before trading in for a new one. Seldom had problems with them. Driving my 8th consecutive Benz and my next will be a MB as well. 

Good luck with the hunt and the decision!
PS deciding on Speedy Tuesday..you’re a real watchguy Weems 😉
PS’ are you sure those are leather seats? In the photo it looks like MB-Tex

On my way for a car

I drive my Honda with joy. But i’d experienced i am tired of shifting gears. Nowadays a car can do the driving for you, so why not some comfort more? Today i brows on a Mercedes C180 AMG line. No Burmester stereo, but an upgraded audio stereo. It sounds g...

Very intuitive design. I think you’d enjoy the experience of driving a Benz. I’m not a car guy (cuz I don’t have funds for another car), but my choice of car happens to be a standard Benz SUV. It’s not new, I got it when it was 2 years old, now it is 5 ye... 

Keep your Benz ok

You are not a car man. Than a BENZ and Toyota/Lexus is a save way. I know very much about many cars, so i know which to not chose and which to chose. I know the BMW’s with Peugeot engines and home engines. The car i was test sitting, have a genuine Merced...

Fun is to read it from a German. Your country. W204 is ok, but W205 as you know younger. Sure i looked for W204 online, but as you know, older, euro5 and lower. The W205 is longer on my eyes, and the finance is no hordes. The squared W204 i see to much. T... 

The long term quality of W204 is legendary.

Great info about the W204. When i cancel the W205 which i visit, another W205 would be it. It’s definitely i will chose a W205. Tell me some tales about the model, George.

Great choice .i have been driving a few MBs for quite some time now .

If you can stretch your budget for a slightly bigger engine . Please try to test drive the 180 and one with a bigger engine .

The good news is

That this car can easily run another 200.000 km effortless. I live Mercedes

A better reply is unthinkable

Now i can buy the Merc without any worries. I confess, i am a bit over the moon of the car. I know i must brake some emotion and think down to earth, but it is one of my legs is in the c180 already. ...  

You’ll be a happy driver.

Many years back I drove Mercedes (Predecessor of the E class) but then the company switched to BMW. Good cars but not even close to MB. Thereafter I switched to Porsche. Drove the Panamera for few years, liked it plus it tick one of life’s boxes to drive ...

Once a vintage car specialist told me that’s a clear sign of a well used (loved) vehicle. Congrats on your new ride. I am fan of Mercedes Benz.

Wait

 
 By: Weems@8 : June 21st, 2021-20:20
Thanks for the reply. Wait is the title. Why? I decided to look further. Why? I want to have a younger C180, different paint and from the first owner. And if i am lucky, i try to get a C180 with Burmester audio.

Good luck and happy shopping!

I need to check them out the Burmester I got (I think) .. usually I don’t on my radio when I drive. I will check it out. Thank you for the tip. 😉
