What car to keep, 1991 300E or 1995 C220?
Well we need to sell a car now and I can't figure out if I want to get rid of the E or the C. Both have identical mileage (around 113k), yet I am not sure what would cost more to maintain. I've had the air pump on the E go, that and the belt tensioners were fixed, but the engine itself is running fine (albeit with the typical need to top off a quart of oil every couple months or so). The C220 runs well also and hasn't had any major repairs (but the fuel gague doesn't work properly).
What do you guys think? The C looks like it blue books for twice as much as the E, so I think it might be the best choice to sell right now.
The car would be used for commuting about 40mi round trip, 3-4x a week.
