Thank You - 10 Years C230k

Had to get rid of the c230 finally. 222,000 miles and the car wouldnt start. too many problems at 190K+ repairs were getting costly. this last one was the fuel pump... never changed my timing chain and didnt want to risk the thing snapping and didnt want to spend the money to get the repair, the car isnt worth much at all on market value.

its been a good 10 years and these forums have helped me so much in getting this car to go this long. this is the only car i've used which has never left me stranded!

going to miss the forums but the w203 was a tank.

thank you all for your help!

They don't built them like they used to

My parents have 170k on their '99 e320 4matic and never any major issues ... Just small nuisance ones after 120k... They're also waiting till it just literally dies (which it won't) and they'll pay to have someone haul to scrapyard

Congrats

My wife car is 10 years old as well...with only 32k miles. (It was stored for 3 years). Ironically, I drove it the last few days and had lunch with colleagues. I parked behind a black Tesla today. Sweet ride!
