...but which one!?
Hi everyone, this is my first post on here and one where I immediately need your advice. My GF has recently had her 06 MX-5 written off and we are now on the hunt for a winter/comfy replacement.
The c180 or suchlike looks like a match, not too long, 2 door, reasonable engine size to power ratio and... Good looking (in her opinion).
I own a BMW 645 Covertible so used to a bigger engine and car, but like her choice over any BMW alternative (compact, eww).
There is an array of choices on AT and alike but I wanted to get a consensus over what options to weigh up when choosing a second hand MB C???.
Budget at absolute max is £3000. Engine size not important to stick to the 1.8, so could go for the 2.3 or deisel option.
I live on the Isle of Wight, so popping out to see one costs about £100 each time, so I'd love to go armed with some knowledge and checks to bring back an example we can spend time and money keeping it in top notch condition.
One she likes is this one : Mercedes-Benz C Class 2.5 C230 SE 7G-Tronic 2dr
Not sure if I'm allowed to put links?
Thanks in advance for any wise words,
Drew
