New guy with a clean 203...
Hi all. Just picked up our first MB. It's a clean 203. 2006 C230 sport. V6.
Picked it up from a buddy of mine who also has a 2010 E350 and a very, very nice SLK 320 w/a ton of mods: pulley, tune, intake, exhaust,etc. Bad @ss!
Loving it so far! My wife and I went up to Daytona Beach over the weekend from the Ft Myers area to pick it up. Car is super clean in/out and runs great. No problems on the 4+ hour drive home!
Already looking at replacing the grill, side markers w/clear, bulbs in head/fogs and a flat hood emblem! Let the modding begin!
Anyway, onto the pics!
On the way home at a pitstop at Starbucks!

Thanks everyone! LOL tommy!BF, I will look MBENZL up for mods!
OK, so if my engine falls into the range of having balance shaft issues, is there anything to do? Just change the oil more frequently, add a zinc additive? I searched a little and haven't come up with much info...(just that it is expensive to repair and generally the motor will grenade on you)
Again, thanks!

MBWorld Fanatic!
Is it viable to be doing oil analyses at every oil change and once they start showing unusual amounts of metal -> unload the car?
