No let anybody tell you otherwise.
C230k is in high demand,way more demand than it's m272 bearing counterpart.
Don't let any of these guys cajole you into selling it for less than 2.4m
That's it's actual price

How much is Registration for this vehicle sef, I mean number plates, insurance and the likes?

How much is Registration for this vehicle sef, I mean number plates, insurance and the likes?

Lagos is 5 to 10K cheaper than Abuja. Between 40 to 45K should register it includes 3rd party insurance.

Comprehensive insurance is different if that's the one you prefer.

I don't need the comprehensive insurance

Chelseafan1:


My C230k

100k.comprehensive insurance included

Chelseafan1:


I don't need the comprehensive insurance

Then budget max #45K for everything. If vehicle is tinted, you will get a tinted permit which should cost 15 to 20K

Thanks guys

Who are those over-hyping the c300?
Let's compare the c300/c350 with the Lexus ES350; both year 2008.
Let the comparison begin.

If you wanna sell your C230 for 2.4m, how much does a w203 c280 or c350 sell for?

No need for comparison to avoid derailing the thread. C300 is a nice car but if i must do a w204, then it must be a 2012, 2013 or 2014 C350 sedan even though it can be scarce sometimes. All issues faced with the 2008 to 2010 such as the EIS failure were resolved from 2012.

Brand sometimes has to do with individual's choice. Lexus is a nice brand and also Jap reliability but personally i prefer Mercedes.

ES350 has a more refined interior than the two, and has more power than the C300. Power delivery is also smoother on the ES.

Both C classes drive better and that's about it.

ES350 looks better imo. Cheaper to purchase, cheaper to maintain.

If you wanna sell your C230 for 2.4m, how much does a w203 c280 or c350 sell for?

The vehicle condition can or may affect the price. If the car has a low mileage untampered, price won't be same as one that has has a very high mileage.

You can as well check it out on various USA car sites. Mileage determines the prices of cars. Personally, i won't do a 2004/2005 C230 for 2.4. I'll rather do a C320

demand and supply baba.basic economics.
C230k is in high demand cos it's economical to run than those things you mentioned up there
That is why

I have no idea why the 2005 C320 isn't popular. Imo, it's the only good W203.

You wanna teach me basic laws of demand and supply in economics? Okay, let me ask you a question;
Why then does a 2005 corolla cost less (about 1.4/5m) than a 2005 c230k?
Is it that the demand for MB is more than the corolla of that year?

Title and mileage both affects the cost of cars but they're not the only factors to consider when price is key.
My point is that aside the fact that the c230k in question is not registered, it's considered as a naija used. So, the price has to be less. I bet you that the one who wants to sell got it for 2.5m or less than the price he wants to sell it for after using it.
That's not a fair deal if you ask me.
And ladyjblinks sells c300/c350
cheaper than others selling those cars. However, proceed with caution as I'm not endorsing her deals; although I've heard that her deals are okay. I haven't patronised her.

Why do car manufacturers compare cars of different brands then?
Your statement above is a subtle way of avoiding questions.

market reality is my stance.
Take a good look at chealseafan1's car,I've seen uglier ones go for 2.2m,let alone his.
Fuel economy,ruggedity and cheaper parts makes the c230k be in high demand.
2.4m is fair for his car tho

His C230 can't be classified as naija used because it isn't registered. It's a toks but even though that's not the yardstick to determine the price.

Many are crazy about low mileage cars but fail to put into consideration the service history of the said vehicle. I will rather buy a high mileage vehicle that was well maintained than a low mileage car that wasn't following the maintenance schedule as at when due.

Well, as for the C300/C350, I won't just fall for cheap offers except all is well with the said vehicle. I'll rather do a pre-order on such cars than buy locally here. All it requires is patience to achieve this and you save cost and even get the best most times.

Okay, and again the year of manufacture of the vehicle. But if all is well with the ride, one can still buy if the price is fair after comparing with the market value.

What if his car's mileage was rolled back?

Before i purchase any vehicle, i must definitely do a VIN check on it. Many tok vehicles out there are advertised with tampered mileages.

nakoks:


Come and collect 1.9m lets hear word.

That's overpriced. 1.4 Max it is a Nigerian used vehicle... Used anyhow by Chelseafan1
