New Owner in Newton Abbot

[Jonathan Jeffreys]

Hi guys!

I’m finally a MB owner. Picked her up last from Exeter and fell in love.

She is 2005 c200cdi avantgarde and has done around 168k and in very very good condition. A few little things to do to tidy her up more but it’s all cosmetic I hope.

Looking forward to making a few new MB owner friends and seeing many others.

I would upload a few pics but I’m not sure how to do this on forums. Please, say hi! I’d love to meet new friends and maybe drop some advice my way about the model?

Cheers

Jon

Welcome, Jon, looks like a nice motor.

 

[Jonathan Jeffreys]

Thankyou for your welcomes!

Yeah she is a lovely looking motor! I’ve noticed she is a little loud but I’m taking her to the garage on Tuesday morning just to get her checked out. I was told the timing chain needs to be done after 155k miles and this worries me alittle with 168k miles on her so I just wanna make sure she is all good.

And yes......I saw the upload a file button haha

Hi Jon and welcome to the forum. Once you get a Mercedes, it can become addictive

I can definitely see why! The built quality and drive is like nothing I have ever experienced in my life. 14 years old and it feels new! Unbelievable

Hi and welcome. Old MBs are delightful. My oldest is 26 and drives beautifully.

Everyone has a different experience, but I found them unhelpful and hostile to me knowing exactly what I wanted them to do.

Certainly looking nice for a 14 year old car.

Thankyou! She is sweet! The bodywork has a few marks and scratches but can be sorted with some compound and a good wax. I’m looking forward to bringing her back up to showroom standard.
