I bought a cherry red one July 2020 for 2100 the sunroof gets stuck but you can manually crank it shut per the car manual. Just needed an oil change, new tires, brakes, gas cap, new windshield wipers, my mechanic sealed the gaskets on the engine and installed a windshield wiper fluid container that I got at the junk yard for 150. I put seaform high mileage in the gas tank and a little in the engine right before an oil change and she runs like new. Always best to go to a pick your part junkyard to get the little things like a gas tank cap for $3.50. I had already bought one from Merced for $65 and it didn't even have the mercedes logo on it. The one from the car at the junkyard did. Lesson learned.
Jordan Alexander can you update. Is it rwd is it automatic. How’s the speed? I heard not to get too much horsepower in these cars it can result to something deadly dangerous.
I'm curious how things turned out for you with this car? I got one for free, no joke, it was given to me, with 80,000 km or 50,000 miles in caveman terms. I love this car, I would've put some TLC into it mos def.
$500 in buying it. $150-$200 for a new passenger fender & passenger mirror. $300 or less for hot inspection, rebuilt title, title transfer, new tags and registration. Put in Bluetooth stereo on my own. Wiring was a bit difficult because I didn’t know German car wiring. Did more to it. 138,xxx miles on it and I took it to Mexico, still running strong.
@@arturohernandez2313 i got a running 05 C230K with 211k. 2 months later now. It has 222k. Got it for 1300$.....Silver with Silver wheels and black Int.
You paid next to nothing hope it works out. I paid $6000 last week for a 2002. Mine is in mint condition though. Less the 100k, 6 speed manual. Enjoy it.
Ru guys happt wth car...talk to me im almost out tje door to buy a 2005 kompressor for 1500 w 120000 m is thst worth it.talked to gpod car or dont trip
Exactly those are the 2 green lights to getting fucked in the asshole you can’t start it and you don’t even wanna test drive it and risk getting pulled over in it lol no plates and it’s not even registered in that persons name and then the key they either give you a fucked up key or you have to get it redone and something major is bad on it that’s why they took the plates off and left it without a battery because they didn’t want it turned on
Depends on condition and how well it was maintained I’ve had mine for about two years (2005 C230k) now and it’s brought me some problems since I got it like, 1)Sam (signal acquisition module)module would not cut off the signal and my left head light would stay on even with the key out. Cost me about 800 to replace with labor 2) starter went out. This happened right after I drove it home like 2 days after. Cost me about 300-400 for a new one and labor 3) alternator gave out too. 4) battery went bad because of the alternator. Both alternator and battery ran me a total of 1000 with labor and I put a new serpentine belt I guess it’s normal due to the age of the car And things start to break down, but nothing too crazy atleast not yet however I really like the car . Also it’s going to need new brakes and rotors because u need to replace the rotors too on these cars you can’t just change the brakes I feel like it’s a money pit when things start going bad or maintenance but like I said I really like the car, since it’s my first car and I’m the 2nd owner I forgot to say I bought it for $2750 not salvaged but i think it it was in an accident because one head light was new or looked new and the other was yellowing And it was missing some of the splash guards that go underneath the car and the engine cover that covers the spark plug wires. Lol not that I look back at it I just bought it and should have done more research or looked around a bit more since then I’ve seen better deals out there but who knows what could have gone wrong with those To each their own i guess
I bought my 03 c230 sport coupe back in Nov. A retiring dealership Mercedes mechanic got it cheap and was going to flip it for $5k and let me have it for $2k. Had 147k miles on it but looks and drives like the day it was made. Fell in love with this car first time I drove it. Only issue I have had is a thermostat which cost about $23 and 20 minutes of my time.
I dont see other videos lmao hahahahahahaha I guess his journey ended real quick lmao hahahahaha stolen car ! seized engine ! he just did the guy a favor and removed junk for cash lmao hahahahahahaha no update hahahahhaha we all know how this ended, crash and BURN! lmao

Great buy. They are really good cars if anything at all is going bad is maybe the conductor plate. They go bad often
Just got one for $1500 with 220k running strong
I had one of these back in the day...a lot of good memories
First car I went 145 mph in haha. May look for one again one day.
Dude I just bought one for 700 aswell!
Lucario Alexander does it run well?

Had 03 black with 6 speed. Was a fun car till I broke the sport differential.
How do u like it?? Thinking of buying a black 1.

They almost convinced me to junk my 2004 C230 with 189K for $400. Another guy offered me $250 that’s when I decided to not sell.
Hey I’d love to know how it works I’m 18 and this will be my first car and I’m so scared on how it’s going to work definitely wasn’t my first choice
Might buy one myself, I can imagine the low weight of the car + RWD might cause it to feel unstable.
I bought mine for $500. Had to rebuild it tho. Damn I would of paid $700 like you for this one cause it’s in way better condition than mine.
Arturo Hernandez how much did you put into yours?

I bought mine $1000. Did I get ripped off??
Kawa 650 It all the depends on the condition of it and how many miles it has. Most in good condition worth anywhere from 2 to 3 thousand.

reekreaks those are all things that you would have to replace on any 17 year old car. These are great cars if you maintain them.
