from what i know these generally work, but will not be able to access the online database of updated information.
the laptop has a cloned hard drive from another computer placed within.
i've never used one myself, so just regurgitating what i've read online.

if all you're using it for is a w211 then get the C3 that is wired as they are more reliable than the c4 wireless

Ive heard of many guys running the C4 wired or wireless no issues. They are all made in china bro. Even the legit ones, still have china made parts. I am about to connect my car to a C4 today.

Yep. I have a C3, works fine for me. If you plan on getting another, newer MB, might be worth getting the C4 with a newer image.
