The 2019 Mercedes-Benz C200 range of configurations is currently priced from $27,990.
Our most recent review of the 2019 Mercedes-Benz C200 resulted in a score of 7.9 out of 10 for that particular example.
Carsguide Deputy Editor James Cleary had this to say at the time: Five is late middle age in car years, but the Mercedes-Benz C-Class’s late 2018 refresh has kept plenty of pep in its step. The C 200 is beautifully built (in East London, South Africa), well equipped and entertaining to drive. Modest rear headroom is a miss and Merc’s warranty cover needs a boost, but factor in the standard safety, high-tech drivetrain, and ease of use and you have an impressive entry-level package.

This is what James Cleary liked most about this particular version of the Mercedes-Benz C200: Quality, Equipment, Safety
The 2019 Mercedes-Benz C200 carries a braked towing capacity of up to 1800 Kg, but check to ensure this applies to the configuration you're considering.
The Mercedes-Benz C-Class C200 2019 prices range from $32,340 for the basic trim level Sedan EQ (hybrid) to $65,230 for the top of the range Convertible Base.
I’ll assume you’re talking about a C200, Kevin, which was the most popular Benz model with a 200 in its name back in those days. The good news is that, no, that engine doesn’t need a timing belt change. That’s because it uses a timing chain rather than a rubber timing belt and, all things being equal, the timing chain should last the lifespan of the car itself.
All Mercedes-Benz passenger cars from that era would all have been sold brand-new with two keys. If you’ve bought the car second-hand with just the one key, you can contact a Mercedes-Benz dealership, quote the car’s VIN and the dealer will be able to order the correct key and electronically code it to work in your car. It could cost several hundred dollars, however.

Is it a minor service? Perhaps it’s a major one? The cost depends on what needs to be done. The best thing to do is to ring around and check a number of service places, from main retails outlets like Kmart, Repco, Ultra-Tune etc., and some specialist Mercedes-Benz mechanics. That would you a good guide.
