My first car which I still have is a white 97 c230. its lowered on bilsteins and it was my grandpas. He had it 3 years and bought it because it was lowered (lol) sold it to me and I've had it for 3 year and it's been nothing but reliable 316,000kms and still going strong just about ready for new shocks tho. great video randy!
OMG! What a treat! Three. Short posts in one day! Absolutely love it! I actually prefer several short ones to one long one! THAT MERCEDES IS ONE SWEET LITTLE CAR! Runs like a top! A great buy for somebody! HOLY SMOKES you bought those three cars Sight unseen, no major problems I think you need to head to Las Vegas!
I think I put this on the original video for this car, but my daughter totaled my 97 C280 hitting a Jersey barrier at 60. And walked away without a scratch. The W202 is a great platform.
Hey Randy. As other people mentioned the fog lights are built in the front lights assesment. As far as the slow temperature concern you probably do have a problem with your thermostat cause from my personal experience this car warms up pretty fast it's engine
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 The two inner most front lights are the fog lights (next to grill) you can see them when you turn off the regular head lights Your buddy Peter from Kansas
MB Used same light switch (9 or 11 pin version, 11 had fog lights) for many C class cars, no fog lights on your car, was optional, removeable plastic cover and fog lights added) LED on radio and hvac fade after time, pressing screen sometimes makes it come back
The display may be suffering from Zebra strips with bad contact, a relatively common problem with older LCDs. These can basically be cleaned (be very careful on the display side and use demi H2O with 99% isopropyl alc) or replaced. An automotive environment seems like exactly the place where those would be used. The alternative would be a hot bar attachment affair, which is a high-temperature plastic film cable that's been soldered on using, you guessed it, a hot bar, basically a soldering iron with a massive tip. Two bulbs out in the same rear light? Could be a coincidence, but I would definitely check the ground, too... As someone with a modest collection of things (not cars but radios, keyboards and most of all music) I can relate to the process of rediscovery. I was going through music releases from 2013 earlier...
A car guy who can't tell that the fog lights are in the headlights. The fog light on the rear is for showing there is a car to someone driving up on them from the rear and that is the side to pass on.
Randy there is a public auction in Inola Okla where you could sell your cars to the public and other dealers. The company is Chubbs Auctions. I’ve been going to this for the last ten years. It’s held the first Saturday of every month and about 1200 people attend.
I've glued headliners using those glue sticks from the dollar store and that was 5 years ago and it's still holding. Not that much was hanging just a little bit up by my front visors.
I’m in Texas, like you I’ve got a wholesale license but a buddy in the retail business will handle the customer transaction and it works well and it’s legal
Well alright Randy! Now you are beet me in one year... You just posted 3 videos in a day!!! when I just put 3 videos in one year... 👌🤣🤣🤣🤣 Man they are all beautiful cars🤩😍 but that mercedes put me salivating 😍😛😅 just like i told you before, my MB S210 started after almost one month on my garage, and it's not so well kept like yours. Stay safe, Cheers! 🙏🏽✌️🇵🇹🇲🇿😎
I’m interested in a 98 compressor C230 they’re saying it has transmission issues how hard do you think it is to find a transmission and how many are shared?
Mine is a 2000 mercedes benz c230 kompressor, but on the side it says sports and I don't know what that means. It's only got 186000 miles and I have never had any major issues with it. Runs great and doesn't leak any oils of any kind
I think you need to find a local dealer to sell your baby's ! Maybe a young man that has a passion to sell them rather than a wholesale action . You have so many beautys that we would love to buy . just an idea ?
Here We go again, literally to the 1% who's reading this, God bless you, and may your dreams come true, stay safe and have a wonderful and blessed day.😇
I like that Four Banger sure wish I had her she's looking and sounds awesome from way over here,. Monkey wrench mike is going to be 🙉🔧🔫🔩 Sad to 👀 see this one Go.
I like watching how you give those cool old cars a second life. Its always hard to see how they are being scrapped
It is?

The fog light are the lights closest to the grill on both sides
Thank you for sharing your automotive passion with the audience. Excellent explanation @ 6:00 on doing what you do Randy.. G.B.

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Awsome car, hope it's going to a good home and daily driven😎🔥👌
Hey Randy , y’all going to Indiana anytime soon ? I love those road trip videos.
MB Used same light switch (9 or 11 pin version, 11 had fog lights) for many C class cars, no fog lights on your car, was optional, removeable plastic cover and fog lights added) LED on radio and hvac fade after time, pressing screen sometimes makes it come back
Glad your getting better 🙂👍🙏

That merc is a really nice car for the money.
Fog lights are inner portion lights closest to the grill.
Grandma has a '00 C230 Kompressor, so the supercharged one.
Great car.
Thanks for the video, Randy.
Does hers have the sports on the side of the car, mine does. It's got187000 miles and iv never had any big issues with it just normal things.
Keep up the great work. Randy.

Fog lights are inter grated into the bottom edge of the headlights
The rear fog
Light is intergraded into the bottom edge of the left rear taillight
the fog lights are built into the lights they are the one in the inside close to the center of the grill.
I like watching how you give those cool old cars
The fog lights are built in to the headlights. Also, rear fog light basically just turns on one brake light. Normally the drivers side.
Yes sir. Be safe and be careful 🙂👍🙏

I’m in Texas, like you I’ve got a wholesale license but a buddy in the retail business will handle the customer transaction and it works well and it’s legal
I need your buddy!
How much would it cost you to become a public dealer? I think you would love it and it would be worth…
Awesome show my friend.
I've always wanted a C230 KOMPRESSOR (not base) as they looked very classy in their day.
The fig lights are in the headlights
Randy buys a lot of cars "sight unseen." Does anyone know why he's emphasizing that fact?
I'm currently in Chicago and would like to purchase the Mercedes for a reasonable price. THANKS. Love the content
hi randy i got a w202 c180 and i can confirm that your thermostat is stuck open because the temp gauge most reach 40 after warming up and yours is 0
4th vid of the day lessgo 🔥🔥🔥
I recently bought W202 c230 (1997) i was born 1996 😅😅 its still intact running at less than 200k kilometers

That Benz also needs new thermostat, it should be full warm already.
The fog .lights are built into the headlights
So here again quicker than normal

It’s a wonder Mike doesn’t want it for a daily runner, a great looking car and a hell of a good deal. I would say $3500
That is a sweet ride.
KEEP THE CADDY
Nice Benz somebody will buy it maybe a collector
I love it!

Hello Randy. The Mercedes C230 is a good car. You should make your money 💵 back when you sell her.
