Neither, they are both nasty but if I had a gun held to my head the second one mostly because the owner of the first thinks their car is a C32 AmG and has been to halfords for some cheap stick on crap.

Couldn’t have put it better myself.
Everything here screams “avoid”.

[Wills2]

Yep neither would be my choice.

[RDMcG]

Possibly the least desirable Mercedes I can recall..they had especially cheap interiors and did not inherit Mercedes quality. Avoid.

[Aiminghigh123]

I wouldn’t have one either horrible cars but my friend really likes them.

If your freind is spending 3k then tell him to look for a CLC:

C Coupes aren't bad cars they're actually quite practical interior is straight out of a C Class so well proven I'd be looking for one with a Pano roof:

C180

Also tell your friend to also look at the CLK:

320

CLK 280

https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-details/202007141...

280 Avantgarde Sport

If your friend can stretch & haggle this CLK200 Sport would be my pick:

Out of the two you've listed it would be the 2006 model.

If it has to be a C-Class Sport Coupe I'd look for a 320, or better still a 350!
