I am currently considering a 2001 C240 that is being sold for what I consider a good price. I never really knew much about MB until I came across this car. I have read about a lot of people that are having problems with them (electrical and engine sensors seem to be a main focus). The only reason that I am looking at this car is because my wife is having a baby and my 2 door sports car just doesn't have enough room. My current car is fairly new and in great condition and I don't want to trade it in on something that will cost a lot of money in repairs. The C240 I am considering has 30,000 miles on it. The car is being shipped here from another state, so I have not actually driven it yet.

Any advice would be welcome so that after I drive the car, I can make an informed decision. Thanks!
