C-Class rated as a "Used Car Best Bet" by Edmunds

Can you believe it? 96-00 (94/95? headgastet, wiring harness?) C-class rated as a "Used Car Best Bet" by Edmunds.

Well I can surely believe it... what I meant is that Edmunds gave it the rating!

Red face

I know... I take that rating to heart... I guess that puts my 95 out of the rating altogether.

Probably has to do with the availablity of additional factory warranty. I think 1996 is the last year applicable.

Hope the 2001- C-Class is as well sorted out this early in it's run, as we're going to buy a 2003 this fall...
