hi,
im 19 years old who passed last year, i just finished my 1st years no claims with my first car: vauxhall corsa 1l manual petrol and have decided i want to buy an automatic diesel car.
I want to buy either a hatchback or a coupe. I was looking at the audi a3/bmw 120d hatchbacks but they are a little bit expensive for the mileage i want. so i found c200 and c220 cdi mercedes coupe which are reasonably priced.
Im looking to buy a mercedes coupe cdi auto diesel with between 100k-110k mileage and be post 03 reg with the facelift.
Are there any common faults/problems that I should be warned about...i'm looking to keep for at least 3 years.
Also how costly is the servicing on these cars or repairs?
There is a car at the moment that is in my budget but did have this on the most recent mot advisory notice items:
Nearside Rear Anti-roll bar rubber bush deteriorated but not resulting in excessive movement (2.4.G.2)
Offside Rear Anti-roll bar rubber bush deteriorated but not resulting in excessive movement (2.4.G.2)
Is this a major issue or am I fine to purchase?
Any other tips or recommendations would be appreciated as I don't know much about cars
