£27k w202 c55!

[Howard]

Why can't that be in the uk ?

 

[IanA2]

I'd rather have that 202 than a C63. One man's meat and all that.

If someone wants it enough, they'll pay the asking price; not many of these around.

Pm sent.

It's a stunning car and probably right up someone's street but for that kind of money i'd fancy something probably not as rare and a little newer.

Just my 2p's worth

... i'd fancy something probably not as rare and a little newer.

Problem Merc-wise is that they've become just another high volume car producer building to a price.

They're no longer making solid, high spec'd, well engineered cars; so, newer? Not for me

 

[Justin1600]

I would rather have my C43

Care to explain? What exactly is missing in new cars specification-wise? How is C43 better engineered than C63?

W204's are simply not in the same league as w202 and before, in terms of build quality, it's not even a debate, it's fact. W204's are built to appeal to a much wider audience and they sell fantastically well because of that..

Horses for courses..

Jay's answered it for me. Thanks Jay.

 

[John Jones Jr]

So, what's it worth? I ask as I'm struggling to put a price on it. 15 big ones if it's a good one?

 

[Abdul]

I would rather have my C43

I'd rather yours all day long.

 

[cobra7]

I would rather have my C43

Me too

Whilst i would have a C63 tomorrow i simply can't justify the rapid depreciation Will wait until they drop to a more reasonable level before commiting. Intend on keeping my C43, which in terms of value can only but move in the opposite direction

 

[Lenny63]

Nice looking wagon you have there sir -

Did I not see one of these advertised on the 'bay' for around £9k about a year ago ? might have just been a converted 43' though.....

 

[Amg82]

Mercedes history right there, I'd love to have it !

I agree.

 

[C43AMG]

I'd rather have Olly's ( Biased though )

 

[horatio]

The mileage isn't even low (87k), how long do gearboxes last in these!?

 

[jaymanek]

All depends who has been behind the wheel... I remember when they were new they were known for early gearbox failures but as time has gone on they have proven pretty reliable.

So I put that down to new car owners thrashing them to bits and Mercedes saying they didnt need a fluid change...
