1995 Mercedes-Benz C-Class Elegance review from Hong Kong
"A great car to buy brand new and use for twenty years!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Replace all shocks at 70,000 km.
The wiper motor broke at about 90,000 km. The driver side power window motor broke about 110,000 km.
Replace under engine cushion at about 120,000 km, and now the engine runs like brand new & is so quiet.
General comments?
Overall this is an extremely reliable car and can last for at least quaetre of a million km, if maintained properly. The only thing missing is the power. For hilly roads, it has to run very hard. The new Compressor engine is a big plus for this car!
