I think those old C-Classes are some of the most solid cars ever built.We had a 1998 C230 (Black Opal over Grey)that my niece drove.She was going to work one day and got into an accident.The car was totalled,there was no saving it at all.Everything was smashed,the car was a box.The cd's in the trunk were broken,everything was gone.Guess what...The car still ran and brought her from the highway about 2 miles away to an exit.The car still ran and had plenty of life left in it.Even the condition the car was in,my niece had NO scratches and was barely even hurt.She just had some seat belt burns,but that happens in most accidents.This car had 130,000 miles and ran like a dream.Aside from that,the W202 is a magnificent car,but in my opinion cannot be compared to the W140.They are just two different animals.If I had to choose,it would be a W140.I sold my 2000 S500,that I bought new.I sold it in 2002 and got my W140 1998 S500.I love it!
