2002 C230 K Sport Coupe
1st Benz - C230K SC

Hey all,
I recently came across a 2002 C230 K that only had 63,000 miles on it and it was well below low book so I couldn't pass it up. It's a little bit of a project car because it's been treated pretty rough but I think it's worth the money and wrench time to get it up to snuff. Hopefully you guys can help me feel my way around this thing.

Welcome to MBWorld. You'll find tons of info on the w203 platform here. It's a well explored chassis. Post some pics of her and should start a build thread as we all love to see project progressions

Let us know if we can help you out with any lighting upgrades. We have plug and play units that will really modernize her looks with new whiter lighting

Okay but it's not much to look at - yet. As you can see there's some front end damage that's mostly superficial. The hood and grill aren't lining up but I'll get a new bumper on there at some point.





It's just crazy to me that someone could treat such a fine car so poorly. I feel like I've rescued an abused puppy.
