Did I get an OK deal on my used c class coupe?

[Bobby Dazzler]

Looking back I think I paid too much, I think the car today is probably worth between £7k and £7.5k and even then it may struggle to sell as prices seem to have dropped massively for some reason.

It‘a difficult to say without knowing all the facts but all cars have reduced in value quite considerably over the last 3 months or so, as the used car bubble has deflated (not quite burst). When you factor in the cost of a Mercedes warranty, main dealer level preparation and their margin, that could easily account for the difference between the price you paid and your current estimated value. Add in the drop in market values and it doesn’t seem so bad.

Maybe MB told everyone that the rear subframe issue was sorted by a certain date ...the same MB who is to all intents and purpouses are still denying that there was ever a problem in the first place .

Thats OK then .

Before you get too bogged down in trying to work out why it's pulling slightly to the left try swa6p your front wheels left to right, it cured mine

2013 I believe.

A friend has had the rear subframe replaced on a late 2014 Class coupe.
