560miles : )

Saprissa · 09-07-2005, 12:51 PM

203,000 km on my 1979 230G
still running strong !

will probably keep the C-SportCoupé beyond 10-15 years with low mileage.
The C-SportSedan will probably keep til it dies, and replace with a higher end model or AMG sedan.

2002 C230 Coupe. 81,xxx miles and going strong.

YeeHaw · 09-07-2005, 04:19 PM

So far my Jan 02 C240 has around 59K...only probs so far has been a sunroof frame issue, felt weatherstrip around the drivers side I plan to keep it for at least the duration of the loan plus a couple yrs.

Might get passed on to the parents, but will remain in the family as im thinking of the Saturn skyroadster.

drexappeal · 09-07-2005, 09:38 PM

I'm at ~18,750 miles.

My car is a 2004.5 (w/ refresh, but no amg body kit)

I'm keeping this baby as long as it takes me to get it as unique as I intend. If that's 7-10 years, so be it. In the meantime, I definitely intend to get a daily driver and turn this into something special...whether that happens all depends on what's in the cards for me (as far as the future is concerned).

Cappa26 · 09-07-2005, 09:56 PM

9 months and i have about 6000 miles

MB2006 · 09-07-2005, 10:22 PM

36 days old, 2,000 miles

I just love to drive this car.
