C240 is a BEAST

Love this car, very reliable. Pushing 250K miles with no problems. #C240 only had to replace alternator for $1000. Not bad for the price tag. Would buy again.

Motor and Transmission Solid with 232k miles

This care while costs more on maintenance runs for a long long time with over 232k miles and still rolling down the road. Besides the motor and transmission, which are solid, other parts, are needing repairs. Brake system, power steering system needed costly repairs, but 232k miles, so what can you expect. Bought a newer C250 2013

Great Shape. Reliable.

This car met all my needs for the last few years. Still running strong and perfectly. Simply time for me to upgrade for my work. This car is what me and my wife drove with our child in the back in a baby seat. Never broke down. Always reliable. New tires. Always serviced with a certified Mercedes mechanic.

Great car when everything's working well

It is a hassle somtikmes expensive to maintain, but it's a great fast car I love it. Oil changes, and oremiuum gas is what is say is the killer, but that's what keeps it running as well as it does fast and a very smooth ride.

Beautiful wagon!

Got this car at 113,000 mi...now has 178,000 mi. A race car driver from Canada visiting our golf club told me NEVER to sell it. It has so many problems though. I am not rich, but my kids are mechanics. The dealerships will break the bank, but they are nice. Every head turns when it is clean....I live in the country on gravel. This is a city, highway car.

Used C320 Mercedes

for a 16 year old car this is a excellent option of how long a Mercedes lasts and operates like a new car. Purchased from a private party and the car performs like it has been off the showroom. Of cource previous owner treated with tender care and serviced accordingly

Beautiful car.

This car is a dream to drive and beautiful inside as well as a head turner. Luxury galore. Very well maintained. Easily one of my most favorite cars that I've ever owned. People want a ride all the time.

DO NOT PURCHASE

I purchased this car 17 months ago - I have spent about $5,000 in repairs in the past 3 months! I'm afraid to get in this car everyday for fear that a new warning light will come on. Unless this is how you want to spend your money, look for another maker!
