Lol, 4 or 5 years ago. I'll take you on your offer assuming I had the funds to spare. Personally, sub-compact cars will need some getting used to. Drove an IS sparingly and always felt leg cramps on drives longer than an hr.

Thanks but, I'll pass on this generous offer, I am pretty certain Hazardfan1/chelseafan1 will appreciate a specimen of this nature

I dey consider am.

The location though...one has to check and confirm the customs papers, that the right duty was paid. If not, anyone buying and intends driving it from the North to South without checking this, will be taking a risk.

It would have been better they requested ooo so you can be sure that all is well. I have experienced customs wahala when i dey do car business with regular purchase in Cotonou. Customs are notorious than Police ooo. I don sleep for Ofosu before Benin if coming from Lagos. I spent 3 days with them looking like a mad man the 3rd day and ended up paying to get my car out.

And na because i Sabi one custom man then ooo. So i don't take chances with Customs. It is better vehicle is underpaid than having fake customs paper. Many of those vehicle for North dey cheap but customs paper dey get wahala

Customs are in Gombe going from one car sellers to another to check the their payment. Even between Bauchi and Jos custom officers there. So the north is not safe for one buying cars without custom papers. So is better one get careful when buying any car.

It's not as economical as the C230K but it's not bad either.

Besides, it has a much better powertrain anyway.

How far the fan, does it make a lot of noise like the C240?

I like the fact that my engine is sooo cool and u can barely hear it's sound when idling.

If I use 2k fuel on my c230k, how much fuel should I expect the c320 to burn?

Why you dey cry like this on top fuel matter and you wan drive Benz?

To me ooo, the C320 is a better ride when compared to the C230. Well, preference differs but my choice would definitely be the C320. Whoever told you that you the C320 chops fuel didn't know what he's saying or may be the one he saw has an unattended issue.

Papers are intact anyway. I usually verify papers with one of the VIN guys on here. He's fast and on point.

The C320 will consume more but I don't think it will be by a wide margin.
As for fan noise,Merc fans aren't suppose to be loud except there is a problem,perhaps heating issues or the guy is running it on emergency mode(removed thermostat tinz).
My car rarely makes that loud fan noise except when the engine has ran for too long and heat build up,then it will run loud for a short period(few mins) and return back to normal.
C240s are fucking slow,you will hate it coming from a c230k.
But I suggest you chill a little and get yourself a durable C300.
It is more rigid,solid,beautiful and recent too.
C230k go soon reach 20 years o,ABI you want dey cruise 15 year old car?
It is a decision you will regret say after 2years so no need.
My little opinion though

Major key. A young financially stable guy shouldn't be buying a W203 at this point. It's already outdated, and will look even worse in a few years.

Save up for a W204. Or come join us over at r/Infiniti cheesy

It's not outdated yet!
Be guided.
Mercs are luxury cars so you don't expect them to just jump off the market like that after 10years undecided
But in 3 years?wheew!E go be like dinausour bone lol.
If you know what it costs to keep a w203 on the Road ehn,you no go spit this crap undecided
Well,hazardfan1,since as you get 2nd car,manage am and get w204 011 so that you can use for like 5 more years in peace and class rather than spending close to it's purchase money now on a w203 and regret it after 2 years,then start looking for who to sell the relic to grin
