  • got myself a benz B200 turbo

    As some of you may know I sold the jetta and just now got a B200 turbo 197hp fully loaded. I'll upload some pictures when I pick up on wednesday .. I went the practical route and it was quite cheap so its a good little car for the city with full warranty and got it for a smoking deal. The big V8's will have to wait for now. Anybody know of any shops that do work on these cars?

    Here are some pictures

    Nice purchase! Wish my mom's Benz came with sport wheels and pedals lol. My parents service the truck at lone star Benz since we don't want to void the warranty.

      I'm just looking for maintenance stuff like brakes etc. Unless MB is strict about getting cars serviced at the dealer.

          I guess this car's gonna stay stock except for some wheels for a really long time. Shitty I just read I could get dinged for aftermarket wheels too.

                      Loved your jetta. Mercedes not so much. I guess I'm the minority as everyone else seems to like it but I'm not a fan at all!

                        Keep it clean. Those things rust like no other.

                          I know what you mean but I keep telling myself this is more economical and practical and this will eventually be the future mrs.' car. Afterwards I've already gotten permission to get whatever car I want in the future . So at that point something V8 or on two wheels like a ducatti

                            FYI, warranty will be your friend.

                            My mom had one, found out there was a reason they went back to geared transmissions with the next generation.

                              Went through that briefly. Mine is a 2011 hopefully I won't have to deal with the headaches.. Time will tell but warranty is on the car for 5 years so hopefully all is good.
