Mercedes C220 CDI Sportcoupe (w203)
Lucas W203 coupe from Portugal

Hey guys, I'm new at this forum, I´m 19 years old, I'm from Portugal and this is my car, hope you like it

Mercedes C-Class 220 CDI (yes diesel) Coupe - December 2001
-> 193000km

MODS I MADE:
-> lettering off
-> original mercedes mats
-> JBL 16.5cm speakers
-> Oval exhaust tip (not in the pics)
-> License plate LED lights
-> black center wheel caps

The others just came with the car

I'm from Portugal, so I could only drive when I was 18 years old, but I only bought this car in November 2013.

Here some pics:















































PS: I'm not sure if I can post this here, but if I can´t sorry and delete it!

Best regards from Portugal, Lucas Faria

Very nice car...

É bom neste fórum internacional termos a representação por parte de viaturas portuguesas, das quais a tua é das melhores. Belo Espécimen do SC

Cumprimentos

Lucas, it's a free forum; you can post anything (within reason ).

Welcome to the forum, always good to see another early coupe.

What color is that, Obsidian or Capri Blue? hard to tell in the lighting.

Nice mods. Looks like you're ready for a new MFD screen (the info section of the gauge cluster). Unfortunately, we've all been there too with the fading - should have been a free one-time replacement by MB, imho, since it really is a badly designed unit.

Any further plans for it?

Hey thanks for the welcome, yeah my screen its starting to fade

About the car, man it looks like dark blue to me but I don't know the exact color

When it comes to mods I have some ideas, but I haven't a job, so I don't have the money to do those things yet, I'm a student.

But my ideas basically are:
-> Tinted windows
-> 18 inch wheels
-> White lights in the interior instruments
-> New hood mercedes badge
-> New front grill
-> ECU remap

And other thigs that may come to my mind.

I can't lower my car because of Portuguese bad roads

But here's a mod!

AFTER:


Best regards from Portugal, Lucas Faria
