Any long term owner thoughts on 2000 C230 W202 Kompressor
 

I bought a 2000 C280 at 35k, now 80k, and it has been a great little car. I'm looking for another one and they are outnumbered 10 to 1 by C230s. Any long term feedback on this Kompressor version?

My friend has the '99. He thinks it idles a little rougher than mine, but otherwise he likes it. I like my '98, but it only has 150 HP. Good MPG though and enough power for me. The M111 is bullet proof. At over 200K mi I am burning no oil.

One thing about the "Kompressor" engines, they have a REAL PCV valve & if it doesn't close properly..

You can have a $$$ bill to clean oil out of the intake system,

IF you buy that car, make sure to replace the PCV valve!
