Had one myself. '96 C180. Great car, great ride. The rust killed it. A great car ruined by shoddy rustproofing. Garage car to boot. Mechanically indestructible Electronics are very, very good. Engine was good as new after all gaskets were renewed. But after 3 near-death inspections due to rust and a broken hardy disc, I had to pull a horse-doctor on it. I didn't want to have it shipped to Africa to pull a plough through soil or have dudes with gilded AK-47s running an ambush on a village. So I sold for 100€ to have it taken apart for parts and have the rest scrapped. Farewell, my old friend. You are in car heaven now.
The second generation C-class was a disappointment, a wonderful car to drive but absolutely no reliability or quality at all, not to mention the rust protection......
@@JarekGmrcy sure, but since most problems were due to bad paint, the only way to stop it would have been to grind the whole car down to bare metal and repaint it.
Its not an easy thing to do almost everything on your own but hey independence has good times and bad times and in the end we can learn a lil bit extra more by learning what drives you to greatness. Its not easy but neither impossible.
My grand father gave me this w202 c180 1997, just because he is too old to drive it, despite the problems we had to fix cuz he didn't used it for 5 years, now it's very comfortable and nice!!! I am only 18 and i love w202 ... Also my father want it as well 😂, after he stops working he will buy me a new one and he will take the w202 😂 even tho from my experience i don't think modern cars are are really compared to w202 when it comes to comfort and style .. thankfully he will stop working in about 5 years so i am good 🎉
They sure dont em like this no more now in days its half wack with the new in my opinion in with the old and out with the new. Its hard to find new era cars that are as good and great as the original well made old school nice strong and solid. Take it one day at a time and take your own time learning what ever it is you enjoy.
Recirculating ball tends to have less feedback, are cheaper, and more robust than rack and pinion. Probably things they considered when trying to build a good car on a budget back in the day. Nascar still uses recirculating ball as well as many trucks. Obviously this isn't to say it is all better, Mercedes switched to rack and pinion, but it was probably due to developments which made the change make sense given what they were trying to accomplish. Nothing wrong with recirculating ball as long as it is a good one, I mostly hate all the wear points, but the box itself is superior in maintenance to a rack. So there are pros and cons. Definitely like the direct feel of rack and pinion, but thats not the point of this car.
Its said that because there's less feedback through the steering boxes, they cause less arm fatigue on long journeys than rack equipped cars, can't see that being a concern on power assisted racks though.
Still looks fresh and modern in 2020! What a timeless and beautiful design.
I don't know what were they thinking with those goggle-styled front lights from W203 onwards. This alone makes me reject that particular model.
Looks old as hell tbh I own one myself. But that's a good thing in my opinion
My father had one this kind of model W202, he's really loved this car...he never changed his car, he still drive this car 'till now...
Please, Lord take me back to the 90's
Mercedes Benz W202 is the best
W202 is SEX
LOVE MY W202
Will Van Deusen same , suffering damage in mine, :( idiot backed into me in my driveway.
Absolutely, Mercedes Benz C Class is classic forever.

why didn't they do the rear seat drop for extra storage on the w202 c230 kompressor model? :( overall great car.
+CoolKid Benz They did it was a option my 1999 c230 compressor has it
If only they had the sense to fit rack and pinion steering and front calipers that were mounted on the trailing part of the disc.
