I bought a used Mercedes thinking that being a Mercedes, it should last another 10 years or so, especially when it had only 80,000 miles. Well, the problems I have encountered in I purchased are: engine harness, brakes, check engine light stays on, but shows nothing on the computer, fuel injectors, fuel pump, air conditioner, spark plugs (changed 2 times). The condition of the interior is excellent, however, and still turns heads when seen. It hesitates when driving and sometimes turns off when at a red light. Would I buy another??? Only if I am so financially stable that I am able to purchase a new car every three years.
'95 C280, tough to rate

Simply put, when the car is 100%, it's great. I bought it used with 112,000 mi., and I have only put 3000 on it in 6 mo. Because it goes to the mechanic every month. Constant misfires, w. Shield wiper motor broke, leak in interior, speedometer sticks, speakers popped, undercarriage smokes after lengthy trips, and now the transmission is failing. Not to mention all repairs are costly. I previously owned a 320, and was very impressed. This car handles well and has zip, as well as good fuel economy. Major problem is the engine wiring harness (1000$ to fix). Aesthetically pleasing. Small, but comfortable. If I do buy another Benz, it won't be a C class.

If you want a good amount of tamed power mixed with luxury and class, all refined into a safe, enjoyable automobie, the C280 is your car. The Mercedes C280 is not known for 0-60 acceleration (60-100 is another matter..it was designed for the autobahn..governed@130) I've owned mine for 6 months (at 83,000 miles) and no problems yet. In fact, everyone comments on how new it looks. You really have to drive the C280 for a week or so to get the true feel for it...there's nothing quite like driving a Benz.
Still Ticking and taking a licking

Boght this car from a lease return at 63K miles. I now have 316K on it and it still runs an looks great. Had the same issues with the check engine light, but it is fine now. Supension just starting to feel a little soft. Bit who cares, how many cars can get up to over 300K miles. Since I purchased it, I have spent $4K on repairs. That is only $ 350 per year. I want to buy another, but I am spoiled and dont believe Mercedes makes these care like this anymore. Maybe under the new mgmt will help.

This is a surprisingly well built and well appointed "compact" Mercedes. If you can get over the shifting into gears which can throw you back, it has power to accelerate even above legal speeds. Corners and handles well with top end tires. You can tell the solid "bullet proof" Mercedes feel and quality all the way around. Roomy, quiet and easy to park. Has the look of the bigger Benz without the price tag or repair tag..
