2002 C230K
I have an 02 C230K with a stick
My average over the last couple thousand miles: 23mpg
On highway, I can get up to 30mpg if I try really hard. But average I'd say 25-27mpg
In the city, 18-22mpg

Hope it helps!

Get a 2002 model. It has the engine from the SLK 230.

I avg 26.4 right now with a mix of fwy and city driving. Fwy driving is about 31-32 mpg going 60 mph avg. I can get higher than that, but that means drafting a big truck.
