2006 C230 SS, 2006 S500, 2008 CLS550 Lorinser
2006 C230
March 1, 2009- 46,700
March 1, 2010- 68,950
This car has never had a single major problem or even a moderate problem. Mostly just wear and tare stuff, and nothing that warranty hasn't covered.
Everything still feels brand new, I sometimes cant even believe my car has so many miles!
IMO, the 203 quality is 50x that of the 204.

12 BMW 535Xi; Retired 02 C230 Sport Coupe
See July 23, 2006 for first reply.
On July 6, 2012, I traded in 2002 C230 Sport Coupe with only 45,813km (28,400mi) and original tires & paint and no accidents. Owned since new. Maintained only at MB.
Had CEL on.
Had heater stepper motor noises, and had noticeable pull to the steering wheel when turning or entering ramps with wheel slightly turned.
Only offered $5,000 Cdn from several dealers.
Have owned MBs since 1979 but this was the worst one ever.

187,000 miles this morning.
need to make it to 200,000!!!!
dealership recommended front bushings and control arms be replaced.
indy said only a little pull and probably just to run on the things a little longer.
what do you guys think? i've never changed them out since i've owned the car

2001 C240
W203 - 2001 C240 with 192,000 miles
I bought my C240 in 2010 when it had 173,000 miles - highest mileage used car I have ever owned - it now has 192,000 miles and is still going strong. No major problems - hopefully, I will keep this car for another 10 years! Very high quality. Next car will probably be a late model C class.
