I just bought a 1996 C220 sedan with 125k miles. Absolutely no rust at all and it runs perfect. I only paid $1,700. All it needs it brakes and I already ordered brake pads.

Enjoy it!

Got one W202 CDI for almost 11 years. Boughted with 77k km and now have almost 300k km Really tough car. Only two problems , the front brake callipers no more produced they make noise from vibration, and the injectors they are to expensive and very difficult to find new ones.

[@gerardbosvonhohenfels1866]

Really I love this type...

[@EEPRODUCTIONSKLB]

Timeless design in my eyes

[@Tempo_est]

4000€?? Where you from? I mean this video made 3 years ago but in north-east europe, baltic this car is cheap, in Estonia highest price for w202 is 1500€. AMG W202 costs 5000€

[@EEPRODUCTIONSKLB]

The car was for sale for 1250 euro's and I am from the Netherlands, North-Europe. Too bad rust got the best of it, otherwise I would have bought it. The engine still had much more miles in it.

I have w202 1999 cdti with 230k miles good car still runs ok but now developed a misfire I changed injector seal one although it helped and runs better it still shakes a little and sounds like it is still misfiring.... All fees back welcome

[@valparaisosting]

Does w202 get rust? I thought they were protected better 🤔🤔

[@Krezo200]

Andres Marra yes, they rust horribly, especially after facelift (mopf)

[@WhosJZN]

sadly yes

[@DIMBARATA]

We have 1 which is facelift and no rust even a point

[@cezardacia1szf]

had 2 of these. first one 840.000 km, second one 400.000 km. the engines were still good, but i do not have the cars anymore because they rusted away

[@EEPRODUCTIONSKLB]

I almost bought the car from this video, but the chassis was fully rusted... To bad since the engine only had 130.000 KM on it.

[@cmautolink656]

EEPRODUCTIONSKLB Hi & thanks for the video - I find it hard to believe that the chassis was completely rusted through on that gold S202 200 CDI - yes some surface rust in places possible very possibly but a condemned chassis ?? Looked a decent car obviously I didn’t look underneath but neither did you in the video anyway - if it was soo bad could you not have shown this in the video ? Best Regards, From Dublin Ireland 👍

My father have w202 kompressor 198 hp

[@TiagoRuivo]

injectors you mean?

[@EEPRODUCTIONSKLB]

Yes that's exactly what I meant, thanks for noticing.

@@EEPRODUCTIONSKLB You make good review on cars. Thank you.

[@Adam-lb4yq]

What's that W S switch next to the shifter?

[@EEPRODUCTIONSKLB]

Standard operation Winter operation

[@Adam-lb4yq]

@@EEPRODUCTIONSKLB ok, but what does it do?

[@Loco327654]

From my understanding the Winter setting puts the Transmission into a higher gear ratio to allow for more/better traction (kind of like starting out in second gear instead of first on a standard trans) on a slppery surface such as snow and ice. If some one has a better idea I would be intersted in know. Thx@@Adam-lb4yq

A good car every made.

[@EEPRODUCTIONSKLB]

Loved the drive, unfortunately rust got the best of it in 17 years in Holland.

[@zakariaangar890]

Hello mr Please give me reference debitmetre of this car pleaaaase

[@UFA-jc8gu]

THE RUST ISSUE WAS CAUSED BY INFERIOR QUALITY STEEL, NOT PAINT

[@EEPRODUCTIONSKLB]

Or maybe a combination of the two, it started with the idea of cutting productions costs at Mercedes in the late 90's and early 2000's. Safe to say this had a terrible on their reputation. After 2005 things got better again.

[@mrpistonrecaro6483]

We just get v6 n compressor

[@EEPRODUCTIONSKLB]

How is it ? How is the body work on the car ?
