I'll bet that's one beautiful car! Maybe in about 25 or 30 years I will be able to afford a 2003 c240.

I've had my C240 now a little over two years and I must admit that it took awhile to get used to the fact that there is no dipstick.

I have gained full confidence in the oil level measurement system and now really like it. I can check oil without having to look for a cloth or paper towel. Oil usage is just nonexistent with these engines anyway.

If you REALLY want a dipstick, it is available for about $70. As far as I'm concerned, there's just absolutely no need for it.

Old habits die hard, and this one has taken a couple of years.

I hope you enjoy your 203 car as much as I've enjoyed mine. I bought mine because they finally decided to sell me another MB with a manual transmission. The six speed is awesome and the power is amazing for only 2.6 liters.

Enjoy,
