Thinking of buying MErc C180

Recommended Posts

Cool!..Is it a good car and value for money buy compared to a4. is250 and bmw?

IS getting resale better?

Is the c180 reliable?

 

The W204 C180 is definitely very reliable for the most part. there are some minor issues

 

1) slight whirring noise on the side mirrors

2) rattling sound from driver's side

 

however, this is not a systematic issue its only a very rare minority of MY09 models that have this issue so no worries

 

Good car? I would think its the best C-class ever made and the sales figures showing it toppling the former 3 series stranglehold says it all bro.

 

Is250 is being phased out, 3 series too... A4 is new but quite a boring look after awhile and i dont agree with the interior styling hehe even though i like the LEDs

I say invest in the Intelligent Light Package and get the bi-xenons with cornering lights and get the LED drls

 

If you install Comand, you can play DVDs, have GPS, get the car to read your smses for you and voice command to control your radio selections

i see, the rebate's almost like the overtrade offer they had earlier. but dependent on loan amount. but then if wana enjoy this rebate but loan 90%??? phew!

 

the overtrade offer they gave early this year is more enticing cuz the rebate given is based on car price.

 

no wonder i hear some buyers being 'advised' to take loan. even just for a year though the buyer can pay full cash. and c&c offer with no penalty for early settlement. guess their tie ups with the relative finance company(s) is pretty good.

 

ya as long as u take the 2.68% package, they wil give the cash rebate as well, even for a yr.

the upgrade promos have 2 conditions....

 

a- you must have a car to trade-in

b- you must take a 90% loan for a minimum of 5yrs.....

 

so if you opt for this upgrade promo,

 

C180BE would cost you a B180 (not sure about the price)

 

booking a C200CGI, they will deliver you an E200CGI instead....at the price of $188k (super attractive to those looking for the E-Class)....

 

haha.....

Wow very attractive indeed.

Looks like Mercedes is basically 'reverting' back to the prices before the COE exploded after Mar '10.

E200CGI was at $188k before Mar according to CarMart price history.

Anyone drives the E200CGI can comment how the car performs?

yup....

 

but i guess C&C are trying to clear the existing stocks fast.....

 

they've earned a lot from past sales....its time to reduce profits to shift more cars on the road....

 

be prepared to see even more E-Class on the roads man.....

Thanks bro. Do you happen to own the previous generation of c class as well? It seems to be more worth it to get the older one. You know if it is good?

$188K before discount and overtrade. After tomorrow will increase again if COE up significantly. Those interested better get it NOW, take the 90% loan and enjoy the rebate! You'd be smiling when COE shoots to $60K.
