So decided to write a review on possession C200 w202 1994 onwards Ownership period of 9 months. Moved from the VAZ-2112, comparing naturally misplaced. Actually wanted to take a Toyota Crown in '93, he knew that the man in the cr Money was not sorry, only the original, all-in-time, and under the hood almost climbed, there was no need. It later emerged that the Crown welded "pop", then this option was dropped. Upset, began to look for other options. The budget was modest, about 180 thousand somehow come up with an option to take an old Meren. Certainly thought of risk, but a run on the options worth it - nothing to lose.

Went to see the 1st and the last option. As it turned out hurried to the purchase, Meren was bit Boccino, underneath the passenger side is poor. But at the time of inspection, I was like ohmuril charm of this machine. Vendor - a young guy with a sly look clearly something withheld. Sold for Genk car allegedly stepfather. Looking PTS, 3 owners in Russia, the Moscow road, as well as the winter salt machine was not spoiled by listening to the engine by turning the buttons out of it and, after looking around the front glass, niche chute, like anything criminal, decided - we take here and now. 25 bargain because of the initial price of 185 TR took its first measurements on native 15 cast for 160. Winter tires, as well as the drive was not, this aspect of the right to bargain boss, throwing off his miter 15, 10 more to bargain for a cross. Still chuyalo my heart that something was not right, he's like middleman. Oh well.

Paid off and now I mchu home in a nearby area for measurement. That same evening, found that three transmission by gas dump flies. It's a shame, 3 in the most salable, then spat - no problem, right now, as I go, already accustomed to. When he found the bottom and cooked battered Boccino - upset even more, right now, spit - not a problem, not 10 years old to ride it. Immediately natural oil change old was dark as ona black. He poured 5-50 Mobil synthetics, I thought that the engine with claimed mileage of 270 thousand, it is not necessary, and was succeeded by 10-40 semi-synthetics, air, spark, and also changed the belt once bought winter tires + Velcro. The first 1,000 km it became clear that the pump runs, scatters from the pulley. 2000 rubles SWAG, delivered with a friend in the garage themselves, generally almost all try to make the repair myself, except where special equipment is needed. Then it turns out that the steering linkage also outlived its, back buzzing hub-and therefore two just below replacement. But it is not hovering, on the trapeze and bearings I skated winter calm.

In winter, 1.5 months after the purchase and about 3000 my mileage on this car decides to go out of Msc in Voronezh. Round trip only please. And with our -5 I get to -25 degrees Voronezh cold. The car stood for a couple of days on the street. I go out, the key to the start, started up - troit written off in the cold, after engine has become resistant after a good warm to touch - carrion fails, the car does not pull, troit-tupit, bogged down. Again looking for some of the same thing, more or less goes, if the gas in the ground. All right, PPC, came to Voronezh. How to Make the desired trip, put his horse into the yard. Near CF service specialist, at sign, at least. Tomorrow I'll go, I think, and now in the Internet on forums. Oh, if it were not for CF forums much extra money would be poured ... it's frightening to imagine. The result came in the winter in the early C180 and 200 tupit engine control unit PMS, in other words the brain. Took note.

At the next day I went to the service, and it turned out - block PMS, the tube from the reservoir to the power packed with an oil emulsion. They removed the block, drier, tube not have lost, you see, in Voronezh Mercedes service in the compressor water. After a couple of hours of drying machine factory unit as a native and well-drawn, computer diagnostics writes nothing, all right, they say, ha - and how she wrote when just brain-shot put. They took the 2500 for that is not clear, he did not argue. But the next day the picture was repeated, troit-tupit-not pulling-chokes. Even then he took off his block, washed with alcohol, blew up, cleared, poshamanil more, the advice of CF forum, and voila, after the factory and excellent racing in all weather conditions. In general, I do not got a very good option, much more had to be changed, with many pogemorroitsya had to, but I love this car very much.

Recently skated in the Crimea, 3300 miles without problems, only skid blade and scraped the asphalt, and I think that was my fault, bad tie, took her in the trunk. Originally, the ride was, of course, points, suddenly that the car is old. As it turned out, to cheers Mercedes devoured miles, eat almost asked, 7-8 l. 100-110-120 for a hundred km \ h Now, after the trip, I understand that C200 boring machine in terms of speed and acceleration of the dynamics, I'm not talking about the 180 version, and if more and the machine, so all ATAS, for grandparents, in general, I laugh in the eyes of those who wrote - " C180, 150 km \ h without problems "go, but tugovato. And like enough and on the other side, but I want Pobol because after such long journeys you know, there really is a good way - Marsh 150, in any case, I would like 130-150, and 100-110 in C200 cruising, of course it will go faster , but felt that the engine has to be stressful.

Overall, despite all the difficulties that brought, and for some reason it seems that still take this car - I like it. A man with his hands, which may itself which-that do, you can take free. W \ h for every taste and budget, from the barn to the Chinese openly known manufacturers. I think that you should not say which is better - not original, but taking such a machine, and the state of these years, that is, pretty silly to splurge on the original with a large selection and price dispersion. Of course when it comes to stuffing box orig neorig 400 rubles and 200, it is best to take home for $ 400, but when the difference is 1000 or more - you can already think. Coy then changed, which in principle does not need to be replaced, for example front Amorth, even to go, but did not like their work already - changed. Fuel Pump Relay for some reason, like an acid drop fell, worked quite himself, but changed. The thermostat is also working has changed, when to replace a broken bolt, right now, I remember that it was the nerves and hemorrhoids, had to remove the entire body with sensors and cast over him.

If you stop at this and decided to take the back - very good to see everything, and preferably in the specialized center or who are coached by CF, do not be stingy, run the risk of losing more and end up being hemorrhoids. Despite the shortcomings, the machine pleasant to go to her pleasure, you feel that made for man, that he is not in his movements soared, in contrast to our car industry, rear-wheel drive - cool, but not in the winter and in the rain, there should be a neat, handling is good, and the turn radius is great. Nothing special about the comfort will not say there's condos - works, almost never use it. Sit comfortably, embarkation / disembarkation comfortable, relatively large trunk, but not put skis.

I'm thinking to take the same body, and precise s202 sedan with engine Pobol compressor would be great kopim coin. This is a car to travel.

Do not judge strictly, the first review, the car does not compare with anything yet, there is little on what was driving, but from what went on, it is undeniably the best. It is simple, no special electronics for the engine must follow, as the oil change by the hour. Many things, of course, I did not write for a long history. But the car is good, from good hands after a specific diagnosis - measured driving enthusiasts can take. Still smells from 111 motor reliability, and follow him right.
