2004 C240 Wagon - fired right up in -22F weather!!!
continue to love my 15 year old c240 4matc wagon with 120k on the clock, especially on a day like today when in Chicago its -22F temperature (100 year all time low!) and my little wagon sat overnight parked on the street outside and immediately fired right up and after 10 minutes of warming up the car. the 4matic just plowed through the snow side street snow mess and i was off and running on to the highway like any other day!!! this little car still puts a smile on my face and is running like a champ!!!

Nice! Does your car stay outside? -30' with windchill here today. I keep my 300k mile W203 outside. Its old and no room inside. Fires up but I wait a couple seconds while on the accessory position and then start it. They are great winter cars !

any major issues you've had? i just did front and rear struts/shocks, front tie rods, trans mount and need to get motor mounts done next. plus my driver window regulator is wigging out so at some point need to get that fixed but otherwise she runs like a champ no leaks, rattles, noises etc!

My 2004 C240 4Matic survived the Chicago freeze with no issues except my tire pressures were low and the seat warmers took a little longer to get toasty. This thing is a tank, slow and steady.
