i gave up looking for a 190 and bought this.im suprised how well spec,d it is. .cruise control.air con,traction control.full closure alarm.reverse park sensors, auto boot release,auto folding rear head rests,front side ait bags ect. its even got a button you can press so it warms the interior for you before you get in it. i wasnt looking for a c class but this one did jump out at me.and once i drove it.it is a much nicer place to be than the 190.and being a v6 goes like stink.. so i ended up buying it. also while i was looking for something decent,i needed an old shed to bowl about in so i bought this audi 80 sport.(which i like to refer to as "the qwattro" lol).. taxed n motd till next year £200!!..its so much fun to drive i love it.. ![]() ![]() Edited by rick 1, Wed Apr 13, 2011 8:44 pm.

merc looks good that cabin heater sounds perfect for this weather wonder how hard it would be retro fit? your wheels suit it well too the audi sounds great fun my old 80 was the pricely sum of £205 4 months tax and 8 mot great banger ran for a couple of years till it died still got a few odd bits for it lying round |

The 202 looks great Rick, looks in really nice shape bodily. Those alloys really suit it too. Is that the 2.4 V6 then?, I've seen a few for sale but don't know much about that engine. |

The button that you're both talking about is the 'rest' function? It isn't a cabin pre-heater, it can't warm up the heating system or anything - it just pumps air through the system after the engine is stopped. Eg, keeps airflow running to maintain temperature once the car has stopped. Looks pretty clean for a C-class, good cars generally. What's the mileage? Will |

arh right i get it now.i just down loaded the owners booklet.so it is primaraly to heat the engine however according to the owners hand bookit can also heat the "interior" for a short while after the car has been switched off.. its done 150.cheers guys, smiffy i will see you soon mate. stu,yeah it was the color that drew me to the car.it seems to stand out from the crowd. looks like almadine but apparently its ruby red.

I have had a few w202's, one was a C220 cdi and it had a little diesel heater in one of the front arches/behind the front bumper and a extra button on the dash, if you had it on it would kick smoke out that looked kinda strange when it is coming out from under your car! I never bothered with it because I owned it in summer! Nice looking car and lovely colour too! Edited by Charles, Fri Dec 17, 2010 1:42 am.

yes it is a m112 but im still learning being a noob to 202s. [qwote:Just seen this, what happened to the 2.6?] i got fed up with that mate.and i p/x it for this in the end. the guy was goin g to break it for parts.but im sure it was the crankshaft sensor which i told him ,so it may well appear again on ebay/pistonheads. turn the sub around so show the amp off and um....added some lights lol.
