When my daughter's '04 died(driveshaft to the transmission) we picked up a '02 C230 for cheap. fun little car.
Rear wheel drive with some traction control. I haven't driven a sedan/hatchback in 20 years, so I'm not used to sitting so low. Feels a little vunerable versus the Discovery's high stance and heavy, lumbering body. Still, great to drive around town and open up on the highway.
It's interesting to see German luxury( i know, the C230 was entry level) vs English luxury.
Of course, my only comparison is a '02 Kompressor and 2000 Range Rover. But the MB just seems a little more refined.
Anyone else have any experience with these little cars? Any maintenance issues or quirks similar to the D2s?
