I have owned my 300CE for 4 months now, and I have grown to not like it as much as I thought I would. Too many problems keep cropping up, and if I am going to be shelling out money every month, I might as well have something newer.
The car I am looking at is an '01 C240 with 82,200 miles on it. It has Xenons, Sunroof and Automatic trans. They are asking 14,900 for it at a dealer.
What should I look for specifically? Is there anything that is prone to going on these cars? I have noticed a lot of posts regarding the xenon lights... but it seems that this is from people converting from halogen to xenon and having troubles there.
Mass Airflow Sensors seem to be another place of issue on the C240's, any feedback on that?
The car is Mars Red with Grey leather, which is a combo that I love. Do you all think this is a good deal, or should I hold out and pay a little more for one with lower miles? My 300CE has 122k miles on it and it seems like 322k miles... it was not well taken care of and smokes a lot at idle and upon acceleration it burns oil... and just not really wanting to deal with that from a newer car.
Thanks in advance guys!!!
