Hello. Newbie here

I just bought a C320, so thought I'd join these forums. Look forward to posting more when I have something to say.

Does anyone know what it costs to buy a manual from the dealer? My C320 is used and didn't come with the car docs. The nearest dealer is 100-miles away, so before I make the trip, I'd like to know if anyone has an idea. Thanks.

I am not sure.

I joined owners online at http://www.mbusa.com and based upon the VIN of my car, they provided a link to the online owner's manual for the 2005 C-class and other stuff.

Maybe if you entered the VIN of a 2004 car, they would give you a link to the online owner's manual for the pre-facelift models.

Haha, just couldn't resist, I guess. For me, it's about the same distance to Little Rock as it is to Dallas.

Europe actually had prior to the US. You need to check your country's MB site and see if you can get it that way. If not then try the German site.
