1999 Mercedes-Benz C-Class C200 Classic review from UK and Ireland
"Lacking in performance, but wow that engineering!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Drive belt tensioner chatters on full lock.
General comments?
Handling is mediocre.
Needed a part from Mercedes to boost the brake servo from a cold start.
Front tyres - wore the outer edge very rapidly. Now re-shod and re-tracked and watching.
A nicely engineered car.
