Used C200 vs E200

[Pss2]

Does anyone knows why in general an used C200 is same or higher price than a E200 based on similar registration date? C200 has much lower OMV too.

usually not the case unless you comparing new model on c with old model of E

C class looks young. E class looks ah pek.

[Wt_know]

it's all about what buyer want ... what the market want ...

 

they can price e above c all they want if the e is not selling they have to price it competitive or else let it rot in used car dealer carpark

usually for same price, u get a "newer" c by a few mth to 1 year, depend on mileage

 

did the sums and paper value and after try both, i went for the e

2007 was year of the C W204 which was a new model at that year, going against the near end-of-live E class W211. Also are the cars both C&C cars? C&C cars have a premium when comes to resale.

 

W211 did suffer from a bad reputation by MB standards and this could be a contributing factor.

 

It is a different story when you compare the W204 vs E W212 registered in 2010. Where the W212 has a significantly higher price as was the year W212 was introduced.

Same leh... I prefer the space of the e....

 

Where you service ar?

 

Last round I service at super workshop paya ubi

E class wise, I can only accept the current design with the mercs logo embossed onto the grille. The previous one with the big small eye is hideous and ah pek to me.

C class is better looking and you always have to pay more

 

for good looks.

 

That makes the E class better value if you don't mind the looks.

In 2007, I remember my dad bought a C class, but was mocked by his work neighbors that it's meant for women(small size). Due to his strong ego, He immediately changed to E class 2 weeks later. I think if the prices are similar, majority will go for the larger size as a more practical choice. but personally I prefer C class as it's more sporty.

I'm surprised by you.

I would have expected a comparison like choosing to date your neighbour's hot young 19 year old daughter (C class) vs the elder sister who is a pleasant but homely looking 25 year old (E class).

That's more befitting of you
