The car is now sold, thanks

The car has done 82k

For sale is my totally immaculate Palladium silver Mercedes E-class estate. The car has been my pride and joy and has had no expense spared in my ownership over the last 4 years. I am very meticulous and overly fussy with my cars. It has thousands of pounds spent on maintenance and perfecting...
