1995 Mercedes-Benz C 280 Elegance w202

In May 1993 the second generation of the compact class was presented with the model series 202. Analogous to the generally known designation "S-Class", which has been used for more than two decades for the top-class range of Mercedes-Benz, the new models were united under the newly created term "C-Class". A novelty represented the concept of different styling and equipment lines, in which the C-Class types were offered. Apart from the "classic version" the three variants "Esprit", "Elegance", and "Sport" were on offer. With the "Elegance" variant not only the interior equipment is clearly more extensive, in the external appearance, too, there are some striking differences: The all-around protective molding is.matched with the color-tone of the painting coat, painted in contrast color and fitted with a chrome insert like the door handles. The wheel trims, too, are fitted with a chrome ring and the lamp units also deviate in their appearance. The front direction-indicator lights are fitted with colorless cover glasses and the rear lamps are formed bichromatically.
