► The W203 Mercedes C-class is a great entry point into European car ownership and is a potentially overlooked performance platform. Our resident Mercedes Expert, Danny Kruger, recently picked up one of the rarest W203s ever offered in the US on the very cheap, thanks to some less-than-caring previous owners. Its combination of the M272 V6 and 716.6 manual transmission makes it about 1 of 50 left in the US, but its condition is far from what you'd expect. In this video, Danny takes an in-depth look at his latest Mercedes purchase, digging into the W203's common trouble spots and a few unique to this car. If you're considering a Mercedes with an M272 V6, a manual transmission, or a W203 C-Class, learn from the tips and tricks Danny presents in this video to complete a pre-purchase inspection and ensure you bring home the best example possible. 00:00 - Intro 00:25 - First Drive & First Impressions 05:11 - Checking out the W203 C350 Back at FCP Euro 06:45 - Mercedes W203 C350 Engine Overview 16:19 - Mercedes W203 C350 Fault Codes 18:20 - Mercedes W203 C350 Suspension/Undercarriage Overview 26:07 - Mercedes W203 C350 Exterior Overview 29:15 - Wrap-up SUBSCRIBE: https://www.youtube.com/fcpeuro?sub_confirmation=1?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=description&utm_campaign=subscribe&utm_content=subscribe%20button Get free parts from FCP Euro: https://www.fcpeuro.com/page/lifetime-guarantee Follow FCP Euro on: https://www.facebook.com/fcpeuro https://www.instagram.com/fcpeuro/ https://twitter.com/fcpeuro https://www.fcpeuro.com/
