Even drop to 50k level but only got chance to happen for Cat A. For Cat B still quite high and not much chance to drop until 60k level or below. As many not bad cars mostly are in Cat B category. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rickster 5th Gear January 5, 2023 Share January 5, 2023 2 hours ago, Watwheels said: https://cartriple.com/mercedes-models-with-a-renault-engine/ 8 Mercedes Models Equipped With An Engine From Renault A, B, C, CLA, GLA, GLB, Citan and Vito. Why Does Mercedes Use Renault Engines? The story of Mercedes using Renault engines started in 2010, when Daimler (the parent company of Mercedes-Benz) entered a ‘strategic agreement’ and acquired a stake of 3.1% in Renault and 3.1% in Nissan. (Source) In return, the Renault-Nissan alliance got a stake of 3.1% in Daimler. The agreement enabled sharing and co-development of petrol and diesel engines, which allowed the companies to reduce costs and increase economies of scale. It resulted in the development and sharing of the Mercedes OM607, OM608, OM622, and M282 engines. I dont recall merc making engines with capacity less than 1.8L be it petrol or diesel before 2010. They have to work with other car makers who makes a lot of small capacity engines like Renault. The French are infamous with their small hatchbacks and small engine cars. Hmmm, I'm not very sure if information on the cartriple.com website is reliable. I got my information direct from mercedes website (https://group-media.mercedes-benz.com/marsMediaSite/en/instance/ko/Drive-system-New-engines-new-transmissions.xhtml?oid=32998067) It says "The M 282 was developed by Mercedes-Benz in cooperation with Renault. It is produced at the Kölleda plant in Thuringia, Germany and in future it will also be produced in Beijing, China. Renault supplies the components of the long block engine."
