    Ladies/Gentlemen,
    Im planning to buy W203 C200 or C230 M. Benz (Production 2000-2006) but still contemplating.
    Any advice.
    I heard that there are some electrical problems with this car to name a few.
    Is this true?
    Care to share your experience or info from owners, like things to look out when buying one or recommend a shop with expertise on this model.
    Thanks.

    Thanks to you Bob! Looks like no one wants to comment on their W203 experience. So they say, if you have nothing nice to say, dont say it.
    Purnada W203 ko.
    W124 is the way to go!
    Cheers!

    Pass na muna. I guess I have to hold off that urge on the W203. Tulungan mo muna ako sa W124 experience ko. Thanks bro!

    You are on the right track my friend. If to compare a W124 vs. a C203, it's a far cry BUT since it's your first MB, getting a pristine and well-taken cared of W124 (which you have!) would be my choice.

    Simpler to maintain without compromising comfort and convenience. Let me know when you're in town and let me try to arrange a get-together of sort with club members (if no EB is set). DJNoel (i know) also drives an MB... 190e ata.

Planning to get W203 C200 or C230 (mickey mouse h.lights)
