C240
New Benz
Hey guys! My grandmother just passed down to me her 2004 C240! It's been impeccably maintained and is currently at 125,500 miles. Runs great as of yet, and as I fix it on my own, I will be using these forums to communicate my issues! attached is a picture and I'm quite the excited new owner! I believe new headlights and AMG body kit are the first mods on my list... later!

Congrats! Dont let the tuning bug hit you too HARD LOL
The members on here are GREAT and have a wealth of knowledge!!! Just remember use the search button cause most likely the issue has been covered.
If you want a AMG kit, hit up Gary, he's a sponsor on here and will give you a good deal on the kit. If you're looking for headlights you can shell out and get OEM BIX or go the route most do and get Depos or Eagle Eyes off ebay.
OHHHH and the most important thing to know.... WATCH OUT FOR KARO LOOOL

Congratulations on the Benz! If I read your post correctly, I'm sorry about your grandmother. Maybe not the best way to get a car. But I don't want to turn this into a downer.
As Phister said, there are a lot of people who know a lot about these cars. It's a great place to get information and inspiration for new mods!

Congratulations on the car. The AMG kit will look nice on it. Are you going original or after-market/replica? Maybe just start with the AMG wheels as the car may not even need a kit to look nice. Wheels and clear head-lights would be a good start IMO.

Welcome aboard! That car should serve you well for years to come! With my 2004 C240 the best upgrade was wheels. Getting a staggered set off a Sport model changes the look dramatically!
