The Mercedes C300 is the well-rounded middle of the W205-generation C-Class in the UAE, a 2.0-litre turbo four with enough power to feel properly quick without the AMG running costs.
What to check on a used Mercedes C300
Book the CarSwitch inspection before you buy — on a car this strong on paper, it confirms the individual example matches the reputation.
AED 40000 to AED 55000 covers what is currently listed, all from the W205 generation that ran from 2014 to 2021.
The cars we inspect sit at a median of around 100,000 km, comfortably mid-life for this turbo four and nine-speed automatic when serviced on schedule — not a mileage that should put you off on its own.
The BMW 530 is far dearer but shows less evidence of prior body or panel repair — 52% against 64% expected for saloons of this age and mileage in the Emirates. The Mini Cooper is similar money and holds 42% after five years, a bit behind the C300, and runs more electrical faults in our inspections.
A post-2018 facelifted car is the sweet spot. Mercedes updated the W205's styling, suspension tuning and infotainment for the 2019 model year, and that version drives noticeably better than the earlier cars while still sitting well below the price of the newer W206 that replaced it in 2021.
Better than most in this class — it retains about 50% of its value after five years, ahead of the roughly 45% we would expect for mid-size saloons of the same age in the Emirates, and ahead of the wider Mercedes range average of 44%.
