C240 Wagon

If you like spending your weekends troubleshooting a whole host of electrical issues, this is the car for you. Buy a 300D Benz diesel turbo from the early 80s, and be happy. Plus, it will still look like a Benz, and not a blinged up Ford Taurus

C class Mercedes is the best car made in history

My 2003 Mercedes C240 is the safest, most reliable, sleekest, brilliant, powerful, & comfortable car ever made because they can do anything a Japanese car can, but they also give the same luxury & safety that any car ever made can give. Built for high speed on the German Autobahn, these cars must provide safety at collision speeds of 120 miles per hour in Germany.

Greatest Wagon on Earth

There is no SUV better than a classy, reliable, economic, yet powerful Mercedes Wagon as these rare cars save tons of money on gasoline compared to SUV's that guzzle gas. I cannot believe how people buy SUV's as they have so little going for them compared to a German Wagon designed to carry a massive amount of equipment, tools, baggage, boxes, vacation goods, & so much more & still save you on gas mileage ranging from 19-28 miles per gallon . No SUV Made today can duplicate that efficiency. These are so much more beautiful too. Freezing AC, Navigation, great tires, privacy bonnet covering the entire back end of the car, & that wonderful Mercedes Benz V6 power.

C-240 Wagon 4-Matic, handy size

The C-class wagon is an attractive, manaeverable and practical car. Ours has been durable and has a ride and level of solidity that is unequalled for a car of this size. If Mercedes still sold the C-Class wagon in the US, we'd buy a new one!

Best 14 months of motoring in my life

Old, entry level benz is still a benz. 4matic is a beast in the snow and ice. Less than 17k miles until I get my first high-mileage award (155,000 miles, or 250,000 kilometer)

Fast little car, high performance engine

Car was a to work and from work use. Never had any issues with it. Replaced the fuel gas transfer tank pump about 1 year ago and a alternator about 4 years ago. No other repairs needed. Regular oil changes, and maintenance.
