Pre-Owned

Considering a 2003 c230 Kompressor coupe, one has 49k miles another with 65k.
Any pitfalls or specific issues I should look for?
Thanks

These are great cars to learn auto repair. Get the one with 65K miles, you'll learn that much sooner. The 2002 is nice because you can add a pulley kit for a good boost in power. Can't do that with a 2003+.

Any real help out there? Are there common issues with these vehicles to be aware of? Expecting a reliable and fun source of transportation.

I bought my daughter one last summer, 03 230k with 36k miles. No issues to date at +43k miles, but I did buy an extended bumper to bumper warrenty just in case.
