Used 2000 Mercedes-Benz C-Class for Sale near Edmonton, AB

I liked my 1998 C230 a little better overall due to simpler engine , better gas mileage and runs at lower temp. C280 is faster , smoother and motor is really quiet under acceleration . Can hear a faint transmission whine under modest acceleration because motor is so quiet whereas 230's 4 cylinder moderate buzz made trans. sound unnoticed . Got 29 mpg on hwy. at 75-80 with 3 people in the C280 . Rides more like a larger luxury car but smaller size makes around town maneuvering a breeze yet suspension is not floaty . My son's 1994 BMW 325i feels like its much better connected to the road than either C230 or C280 but its not in the same ballpark in terms of quality of interior and exterior materials/paint quality . At 81,000 miles the C280 is tight as new except very slight driveway speed side to side play in steering . Car makers --- put grease fittings back on ball joints and knuckles !!!!

Powerful car, yet great milage approx. 10Km/liter combined driving

Just bought a used Mercedes C280 w/ 106,000 miles on it 02-23-07. Car felt very comfortable, safe and solid from the get go. I'm tall at 6'4 and have a lower back problem from years of playing sports. Lumbar support could be better, but still was able to manipulate seat for maximum comfort while driving. Only problems so far have been mostly a bad ignition relay ($300) that the dealer paid for. Car would be running great but then once you stopped it and left it for a few minutes it would not start, sounded like it was not getting fuel. Apparently that was just the case, #1 cylinder has something attached to it to inject fuel on the start. Now repaired and has been fine ever since. Also, Left rear turn signal light has a short and I can fix it. Also, fog lights (for right rear) are not functioning like they should. Car gets 29.11 mpg on the highway at 74 mph and runs like a top. I bet I could get over 30 with a lighter foot. All in all, I am still very pleased. I never thought I would like a smaller version Mercedes or otherwise, but I am very satisfied. Great city car, great highway trip vehicle, killer turning radius, you can put down the rear seats and get a load of ski's and snowboards in there and still have some room. If you find a good deal, and car was maintained (although I'm only hoping mine was) I would say you should buy it. I'm a very finicky buyer and was looking for the right vehicle for nearly 3 months before I bought this C280 (sport models look cool to). Oh, and my key was pretty rough so I bought a new one = $170 from dealer only (rip off)! Also, antenna is missing mast...replace the whole thing...$100 (double rip off)! Ouch, the price you pay for these accessories can be crazy. Also, (come to think of it...maybe I should take it back) but the clock and gear indicator (very cool transmission, by the way.. smooth tiptronic style) for 2000 and later) are showing hieroglyphics. Was quoted $1700 to replace...will fix with a piece of Black tape and a clock from the Auto parts store affixed over the malfunctioning readouts (I know this is ghetto...but 1700, come on! Paid $9000 for the car...can't complain but too much. Enjoy this car..watch out for electronics, negotiate price if anything is whacked...I was too taken with the ride and might have been able to barter the price had I known how much these parts were to replace! Still very satisfied, hope to get many years of driven out of this one! Good luck!

It's not the greatest car but its mine and I didnt pay for it.

its a very luxurious car. a head of the time for the price you pay for it if you would have bought one new. mine has pure blue HID. it has all the update tech you would expect from Mercedes Benz, such as TCS (ASR), sport tuned suspension, plush leather, and lots of little gadgets that most cars of 2000 didn't have, but have now. the C class excels in comfort over everything else. also. its equipped with a peppy Lil 2.8l V6 pumping out 210whp on despite its 3300lb frame. the best part about this car in my opinion is its quality band for your buck
