Transmission issues, although, this could be due to all sorts of reasons;
1. I suck at driving
2. My father has a problem with buying vehicles with problems or that are known for having them.
3 Being a teenager.
AC doesn't work anymore, and only one vent works for the heater.
Blown 2 tires in 4 months. Not really the car's fault, it's just an annoying thing for me.
Changed the stereo and two front speakers. Added 2 12" subs in the trunk over the summer and LOVE the bass. Although the trunk being right behind the back seats makes the sound distorted. So it's loud, but not defined, but I'm happy with that. It's enough to make 7-11's windows shake.
I feel lucky to have owned this car at 18 years old. I get comments from older drivers on my car which is going on 15 years now. I bought this car from an old couple who didn't drive it all that much for a bargain! Only 2k! I even get comments from my friends on how 'pimp' my car is.
All in all: Awesome car, smooth ride, fun to ride/drive, head turner and it's a beast!
Dude, I know how it is. I'm 16 and I drive a '91 300E 4MATIC. I drive it to school every day. It is an awesome car and my girlfriend loves it. And the car has made me popular in school. Man, benzes kick ass!
What sort of transmission issues are you having?
I had transmission issues too when I bought it. It turned out to be a disconnected Vacuum hose that goes from the tranny to the intake manifold. Total cost of replacement 6$. And now the tranny shifts smoothly.
I am 17 and I have a C230 2000 (W202) that I take to school every day. I travel summer time with it a lot, I race with it LOL, A/C works no problem at all.
My friend has a 190 and his car is pretty much like mine. Everything is fine with it and it has 76 000Km.
MERCEDES IS AN AMAZING CAR on performance, reliability, comfort, easy to drive, smooth, cool, beautiful...
