The MERCEDES-BENZ C CLASS SPORT COUPE (2001-08) C180K 3DR COUPE 1.8 SPORT AUTO is a compact, three-door premium car with a useful hatchback-style tail, blending coupé looks with everyday practicality. In the UK used market, it offers an affordable route into Mercedes-Benz ownership, sitting between ordinary family hatchbacks and larger executive cars. Mycarcheck.com has recorded 334 checks across 168 different VINs, a healthy sample for this older model. Those checks show an average private-sale value of £1,800, average recorded mileage of 105,000 and annual use of around 7,000 miles; cars had about four to five previous keepers on average. With its 1.8-litre petrol engine and automatic gearbox, it suits commuters wanting an easy-going driver rather than buyers needing rear-seat space. Sport styling and Mercedes cabin quality distinguish it, while it offers a premium-feeling alternative to the Audi A3 and BMW 3 Series Compact. Check each car’s history and condition carefully.
