Used 2003 Mercedes-Benz C-Class C240 Rwd 4dr Sedan (2.6L 6cyl 6M) Consumer Reviews
I love my M-B !
Excellent ride, smooth tranny, quiet engine, superb handling & cornering. First class exterior and looks like scaled down, much more expensive S- Class. I have it for two weeks now and no problems so far.It has far superior ride and exterior design than Audi A4 and Volvo S60 that I also test drove.The interior is not as sophisticated as Audi's but much better than Volvo's.The engine is strong enough for quick take-offs from the line and has enough reserve for additional kick when passing at 75 mph. Auto-tranny is as good as it can possibly be. Suspension is perfect balance between sporty feel of Audi and cruiser feel of Volvo.
Bad wiring, poor service
In the 6 months I've owned my C-240 I've had 5 problems, all electrical (Elect. ignition switch, alarm, gas gauge, head lights & brake lights). Other than that it's a pretty good car: good mileage & handling. Interior design could be better: cup holders, location of switches and screen. However, the service I had from my dealership was poor, especially when after the first couple of problems I heard from the owner himself, "I don't know what to say. I don't know what to tell you. I don't kwow what I can do." You know what, that's not it. I may get another Mercedes in my future, but it won't be a C240 and it won't be from the same dealer.

My first Mercedes
Just got my C240 a few days ago and so far it's been a dream. I also looked at the Audi A4, the BMW 325i, and the Mercedes C320. Although you get more bang for your buck with the Audi (leather, better interior set up, more room in back passenger seats) I had my heart set on a Mercedes. I like the way this car handles and looks but feel like I should have gotten more for the money. I'm not dissapointed but for 33K - give me leather interior and a CD player standard, ya know what I mean?
Good Value and Safety
This is a stylish and fun car to drive. With 8,000 miles on the odometer, the vehicle has been less than perfectly reliable. It seems the problems are very minor but annoying including the High Beam Switch, Radio, Seat Controls and ABS Sensors.
