Mercedes C - Class W202 Vs Mercedes C-Class W203 - AllAfrica.com

But given their price tag, most people mainly eye the C- Class W202 and the C-Class W203 because they are somewhat affordable. The first Mercedes to wear a C-Class badge appeared in 1993, when it replaced the 190 sedan as the company's least expensive model. Given that, the second-generation C-Class also known as W203 still in Stuttgart speak had big shoes to fill, Mercedes had to make sure it pulled out all the stops to convince potential buyers they are getting their money's worth in an already... Truth is, ever since it replaced the beloved old 190, the Mercedes-Benz C-Class has been a perfectly competent entry-level luxury car. Anyone and everyone who is not really right there but feels the desire to get into the echelons of Mercedes Benz ownership has their eyes set on either the Mercedes Benz C Class W202 (1993 - 2000) or the Mercedes Benz C Class W203 (2001 - 2007).... Popularly known as the baby benz, the W202 has traditional Benz sedan personality traits. Think of it as a smaller rendition of the bigger cousins of the time including the E-Class and the aristocratic S-Class. Source: allafrica.com
