Need Input URGENT.

We will be purchasing CPO C300 sport version 2015 from a merc dealer.
23400 miles , with pano ,navigation, back up camera, parktronic,awd , heated seats etc
paying 28000 total including everything

my question is ..
1. Is that a fair deal (for a certified preowned)
2. After buying the car ,there is 1 week of return or exchange period.
what all things should we test for? Besides driving it to the mountains in snow etc?
what other things should I check for within that week.
please give your valuable input.
Thanks.

Urgent???? I am guessing that you have seen and driven the car and were satisfied enough to sign the deal. Why question the "fairness" of it now and not before?

This is the W204 forum section. The car you are talking about is a W205. Better go there for better opinions.

THANKS. We have just put the deposit. And We have the chance of backing out .
Also if we get the car we have only one week to test it. That was the urgency. What all could I look for.
This is our first Merc. So thought all the the owners are very knowledgeable and could offer some help .
Obviously I have zero knowledge about cars...so came here to look for answers.
Also I asked te same question 2 to 3 days before and didn't get any replies.. so thought of putting urgent in there... so we can come to decision faster b4 that car sells out to someone else.
New to the world of mercedes and used car buying both.
So please pardon my ignorance.

Thanks.

Yea the wrist pin issues for the 2015's are the biggest problem, however one thing that's nicer (if you're into it) is you get exhaust crackles in S+ vs the 2016/etc models which they "dumbed down" the feature.
