Soon to be C350 Owner

[R3BB]

Hi MC Club, after a few months of searching, I should be picking up my C350 next weekend



It needs a little tlc, but it's taken alot of searching to find one in this spec - AMG Sport Plus with Pani roof and reasonable mileage.

A little bit different from my current car!


I'm in Carshalton, Surrey and going to be looking for a decent specialist to service - any recommendations?

Welcome. What have you got, petrol or diesel?

Nice mate. I`m just in the process of buying a 2007 C350.

Lovely Evo.....still one car on my Car Bucket list

Welcome. What have you got, petrol or diesel?

All C350s are V6 Diesel

All C350s are V6 Diesel

Apart from the ones with the 306BHP petrol engines.
Nice car in any case.

There's a C350 with a petrol engine in the UK market?
I can't find that mentioned anywhere.
Got a link to the info?

I haven't got a link to any but there certainly are c350 petrols. A few members on here have them. I think r2d2 does and somebody else did have

Not sure which years you`re referring to but my 2007 C350 is petrol.

C350 v6 petrol coupe is rare but a great car ( been in one, once)

E350 petrols are out there too.....

2011 onwards

Well if nothing else, I've got a few replies now

Good looking car.

Olly at PCS. Horndean, Waterlooville a great run down the A3. A Forum trader and highly recommended.

If I'm honest I'd rather have the diesel anyway mate. Remap it and it will go very nicely! A more useable power band than the v6 petrol in my opinion.

 

[R3BB]

It already has almost double the torque of the petrol if those figures are correct

I'm pretty happy with the power as it is at the moment, it already smokes most things from the lights!

Facelift C350 petrols have 301bhp.

As somebody who moved from a W203 C350 petrol to a W204 C350 diesel I must say I'm rather disappointed. After 8 weeks of owning it I'd happily swap in to a facelifted petrol C350 but sadly there are hardly any about. Really miss the petrol sound and smoothness.
