A200 or C250

[level z]

Hi All

 

Currently i am driving a 2007/10 W204. Am considering to change car as a fren offered to buy my C class.

 

I short list the 2 cars which currently avail in the second market :

 

1) C250 (2011)

2) A200 (AMG sport, 2013)

 

 

Yup i know they are totally diff car.

 

My brain says the A200, 4 doors, lesser depre and also the economy not so good. My heart say C250, 2 door, more power.

 

I know more or less about the C class as i am driving one now.

 

I need to know the A200. The lower power is ok with me, besides this, any key plus or minus point i should be aware of to help me make a decision should i really change car ?

 

thanks for any advise.

 

regards

lz

bro, what do you mean by economy? are you referring to echo mode, if that's, do not worry can change to not default mode.

Think TS referring to market economy not ideal so A200 should be better cost savings.

wow ...haha ... honestly i prefer the older model ... the FL w204 .. it look much nicer (front and back) .. maybe it is my personal taste

I prefer the W204 too, just has a stance and presence about it.

 

The 2011 C250 is the pre FL or FL model? That was their FL year so a bit confusing. If it were me, I will try to find a FL W204 model. It's newer with a more modern interior, LCD instrument cluster etc. Pre FL change to another pre FL doesn't make much sense, it's essentially the same car. If the C250 2011 model is the FL model, then go for it if you're comfortable with the price. Honestly I won't even consider the A Class.

Mark ... i think it is the newer model with 3 x white face dials ... depre is a bit high but i guess the premium is there for such car ...
