The MK1 model C-Class coupe was Mercedes' rival for the popular 2-door versions of BMW's 3-series and Audi's A5. Based on the third generation 'W204 C-Class' model and launched in 2011, it was a more clearly focus coupe than some of the company's previous models, cars like the CLC, the CLK and the E-Class coupe all failing to live up to expectations. Lower roofline aside, this C-Class coupe looks almost identical to the saloon it's based on and shares that car's engines and interior.

Brilliant as always and the perfect selection of topics, facts and figures.

[@CarandDrivingCarReviews]

Thanks again!

this is 2011 ? looks like its straight from the 90s... i mean the video :D

[@Sympatiko85]

By any chance, I’ve been looking for a resource that explains the advanced agility featured for the sport plus model, sport button? Thank you. I bought mine 6 months ago. Love it so much. Having it fully serviced. Engine, ecm, tcm, diff and transmission serviced at 90k miles. Full tuneup on the 13’ C250 AMG Sport Plus w/handling pkg. the light 4cly engine makes the car so much more fun to drive.

[@SOULSEEKERBEATS]

Any update on the car? How does it drive? Also what's the economy look like?

[@vladimirart758]

@@SOULSEEKERBEATSyup , i want to know also

[@crazyshev36]

Just look out for: Injector leaks, seat ripping, subframe wear, soldering issues on the LCD, electric sorting under driver seat can get a little messy, camcover oil leaks, serp belt supplied by mercedes is useless on these models. If you want to map your 2.1 l, id suggest getting a better alternator and make sure you use quality oil and quality deisel with additives. Also service it. A lot.

[@technooby220]

That many issues? I were looking at picking up a second hand one, 2012 90xxx miles. Mot history and service history seems decent.

[@crazyshev36]

@@technooby220 lots of issues. When I got mine it had clean mot and service, I did get scammed but Mercedes went through it all. I bought it for 4500 and have spent atleast 10k in repairs. Good job its pretty 😁

[@technooby220]

@@crazyshev36 When you say Mercedes went through it all, do you mean they went through all of the issues and repaired or attempted repairs hence the 10k spent? I'm considering getting one but unsure due to stories such as yours. I'd rather repair my own car but I can't figure out what's wrong with it. Got a mazda 6. Battery went dead. Replaced battery and I can get lights on with press of start button but not to iggnition stage (Radio, lights, wipers etc) if I plug my little booster pack onto the fuse block I can get to the ignition stage but no attempt to even start. No turn over attempt etc. I'm hoping it's jsut one of the fuses that's gone somehow upon battery dying as car was doormant for awhile. Do you have any ideas of what fuse if any could be causing this issue? Thanks for your response also, and sorry to hear you've had such bad luck with your Merc.

[@crazyshev36]

@@technooby220 yeah, they did a full video health check, showed everything, talked about common issues. Mercedes fixed the sub frame and seat damage as they're common issues for free. Throughout the year I fixed from their report: injector leak (I was at 50mpg instead of 70mpg), brake pipes, torque arms, track rods, prop shaft coupling, alternator, serpentine belt, lcd soldering, under seat mechanism, wire for back light loose, cam cover oil leak, oil housing crack, engine mount replacements as loud vibrations. Most are common, id say unlucky on the light wiring and alternator. But i did have mine tuned for better fuel economy and that explains the alternator. Would i get another W204? Yes but with a semi reliable dealer. Not sure on the fuse issue, doesn't sound like a fuse issue to me but it depends on how the jdms work, never owned one, never heard of it. I would look more towards the starter motor / plugs :(

[@technooby220]

@@crazyshev36 That sounds like a nightmare experience. I've never heard of anyone have that many problems. I've been thinking starter motor :(

Thank you for the review

[@GaryThompson-413]

Spot great video and info 👍👍👍

[@CarandDrivingCarReviews]

Thanks 👍

[@banterdose650]

hello. im torn between a used 2012 C250 coupe vs 2010 Audi TTS 2.0, which one has better reliability & lesser issues? thank you

[@davidbestea4221]

Is the c coupe a better handling car then an Audi a5 Quattro coupe facelift ?

[@REDNBLUEBROS1337]

I know the Audi handles better than the 4 door version but it is considerably less reliable. This was one of the most dependable Mercedes generations.

[@neptunevibe]

I want to buy one so thank you for the review

[@CarandDrivingCarReviews]

Glad it was helpful!

That 117 CO2 figure would have been nice as it puts it in the £35 tax bracket rather than £150 😢
