IIRC some generations of MB they didn’t do a 2nd gear start on 4cyl models, you needed a 6cyl for that party trick. My 4cyl W213 would do a 2nd gear start but that had the 9g transmission.

Had a campervan for sale recently pop up in one of my social media feeds. 2021 VW Crafter with an average home brew camper conversion inside. £120,000 was the asking price, about £100,000 more than the base van is worth. Campervan asking prices have been silly since Covid (albeit softening now)...

Had my M272 350 CGI in CLS guise for approaching 12 years now and just onto 6 figure mileage. Never had a NOx sensor go, no issues with the balance shaft (my car is outside of those affected in the early batch), in fact no engine issues at all and very few issues with the car. Couple of broken...

We are about half an hour away and have a season pass for this place as a rainy day activity for the kids. No C classes at home though currently sadly!

Did you need to take the bumper off? That’s what is putting me off tackling a couple of mine on the CLS.

Final reduction to £19,995 as I have been offered trade in value fairly close to this.

Price reduced to £20,450. If you're in the market for an E class estate this is a stunning example and really benefits from not being in the usual monochrome colours.

Forgot to list Full MB Service History is as follows: May 2018- 14,003 miles Mercedes Perth May 2019- 28,002 miles Mercedes Perth May 2020- 41,206 miles Mercedes Perth March 2021- 48,291 miles Mercedes Perth April 2022- 54,292 miles Mercedes Southport Further price drop to £21,950.

Now reduced to £22,950, will listen to offers. Aim is to sell during the winter period and pick something dayvan/campervan-esque in the off peak season as my eldest has been interested in getting one for a while. SWMBO says a car needs to be sold before I buy anything else :)

Meant to emphasise the MB warranty - in place until July 2023 and renewable making this a risk free purchase. Also - if you've never driven this new generation OM654 2 litre diesel with 9G gearbox, give one a go. Not far off the performance of the prior generation 6 cylinder but ludicrously...

Just lowered the price to £24k on Auto trader. Further £500 forum member discount available :)

Pride drop £25,500.

For sale is my 05-2017 W213 E220d estate in Hyacinth Red Metallic with Silk Beige interior. Bought approved used in 2021 from Mercedes Perth when the first owner traded it back in. The car was a special order and has some mega rare options which weren’t selectable as standard from MBUK. I have...

Following, sounds like a worthwhile project! I spent 3 weeks in HK a few years ago, was expecting to hate it as I’d already grown tired of the busyness of London but absolutely loved it. Must be in my top 5 places.

Following. I have a distronic plus S213 with standard UK grille and May be interested in the swap to exclusive one day!
