I've got C230Kompressor(2005)Sedan with AMG pkt. with the same motor M271(1,8lit)with extra power (218BHP & 300Nm)with 5-speed auto-tran.Great engine 9,5/10.I have done already 96 000km and my Merc still looks like brand new?Super car in this class...Next one will be C250CGI with the same motor(M271)
Excellent review! Everything from commentary, music, and camera angles. You spent a lot of time on this and well done! Hoping to soon trade my Honda for a 2006 C230! Thanks for this great video!
@nukstero I sincerely thank you for your comment, Spring 2012 will start filming multiple episodes of one of the best cars out there, by next year Evosy should have no less than 10 episodes, hope you will be among the viewers, meanwhile your opinion on the Cadillac CTS-V episode is more than welcome , Thanks
The leg room in the back is great like a living room sofa , design wise its a-ok youll always make more cash selling it back to a particular than bringing it back to the Benz dealership .
@evosy Thanks! Think I am going to buy one. I have a Ford Focus SVT, and love the car. The C230 seems to be Mercedes version of the Focus hatchback, so I am going to give it a go, because you gotta love European styling. Looking into the overhead cost of normal maintenace. Rotors, brake pads, ect. Nice vid. Thumbs up !
@JimmyGunXD556 Thanks Jimmy, although the car is amazing to drive, the car had several major failures, i would advise you to make sure the list of engine parts bellow were changed by MB with proof, if not don't buy the car it is a sincere advice to you, these issues are very well known by MB :
Cylinder Head - Head Gasket - Intake Manifold - Ignition Coils - Mass air flow sensor - Six holes injectors - Thermostat - small hose beneath the air filter housing that splits and causes running faults.
@evosy Oh crap! Well I appreciate the heads up greatly! I will look into it. Is there a particular mileage I should be aware of that this work was to be done before? Thanks
@JimmyGunXD556 most importantly is that it should be the newly designed cylinder head. The small hose is a recall so should be free even without warranty, signs to look for are : car shaking at idle while on D mode,Google these issues you will find it very common with this model, these should have been recalls considering the 1000's of people affected by it, but considering the cost MB decided to let customers handle it, once completely fixed, the car is a true MB in drive sensations and looks.
Mine is an '03 (first year with the 1.8L). I am not experiencing any vibration or anything but your post has me worried now. I have owned it almost 1.5 years and other than a transmission fluid leak I have had nothing major wrong with it. I wonder if I can get my Mercedes dealer to check on the cylinder issue...
I also heard that the radiators of some model years were affected also.
Overall, I very much enjoyed your review. Extremely well done.
@DanC230K keep maintaining the car properly and you should be good,the problems mentioned are very obvious, it looks as if 1 in a 1000 cylinder head was not machined properly at the manufacturer, the reason so many have issues, you are also probably referring to valeo radiator, i believe if you car is so far running well than may be a simple inspection should do. Thank you for your comment, happy you enjoyed it, the Next Evosy Episode will feature the Cadillac CTS-V Coupe, an award winning car
@evosy Thanks. The CTS-V coupe is amazing. Why brother wants one very badly, but I would still prefer a C63. But hey, I'm biased.
I recently changed one of my front wheels and after I had torqued it and it was still jacked up it seemed to be grinding the hub as I turned it, Should I be worried about this? I took it off (since I thought that the wheel was on too tight, but it persists. Wheel bearing? Just wondering. Thanks again.
I couldn't find a lot of in depth reviews of the c230 Kompressor. This was a great video. Thanks for uploading it. Great job!

It is a very fun car to drive, yes.
But i personally think the coupe version has an ugly ass design.
I like the Sedan better
