    Well, I think it depends on three things:

    1) your need for speed

    2) money, the 210 will fetch you more money

    3) cost of ownership, I would ask which car do you think is more reliable and which one will cost you more to own over the next few years


    The W202 is a much better looking car, and should cost less to own (and more reliable, I hope). But the 210 has a powerful engine, if that's important to you.

    If speed isn't important, sell the more expensive car.

    YEAH THATS WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR! thanks man! yes, im not that much of a speed fanatic (i rarely get over 100 in the highway) and the 202 is certainly much better looking, but about reliability, both didnt give me any problems, maybe the e-class has some electrical probs which made me change the rear light panels and minor glitches, but apart from that they are in mint condition.....so i think i might part with the 210..it'll cost me a lot to run, (gas, parts, etc) plus the E has 110k kilometres and the C has 70 something so.... ill keep the C....who knows maybe i can get a cheap deal with a mechanic and he can swap the engines 4 me! that would be awesome!
