190e 2.0 auto (high spec) £500

[manalishi]

Just got too many things going on (extension = loss of driveway, business is busy, etc ), and there's no interest in my 280E, so Plan B is to sell my Nautic Blue 2.0 auto:

Car is as pictured except it's now got 4 standard 16V alloys in perfect nick (plus one with some kerbing as the spare).

For a 2.0, it's pretty high spec with:
* cream leather (VGC - two tiny nicks in passenger seat, but a perfect driver's bolster)
* ASD
* electric driver's seat
* illuminated vanity mirrors
* air conditioning (new condensor and converted to R134, will test this later today)
* OTG (bled)

The bad news is that this requires repair of the rear wheel arch (see pic below) and a few minor dings attended to. I was quoted £500. As I value the car at £1000, I will sell the car as-is for £500.

Full details on the car (inc Russian VIN-to-spec listing) and more pix are on this thread: http://mercedes-190.co.uk/topic/6596685/

Will get the tax/MOT/etc details up later today.

Have now got together all of the service/etc info from the car's file: G745 YFC

Taxed until 28th Feb 2011
MOTed until 18th Nov 2010

Registered on 01/06/1990
4 former keepers (just been PMed to say that the last two were another forum member and his son, there may be threads on the car hereabouts)

Last serviced 17/11/09 at 161,500m. Work done:
* head gasket replace
* head reworked
* rear disks and pads
* thrmostat and housing
* ABS sensors
* new windscreen
* MOT
* Service

Previous service 21/08/08 at 155,392m. Work done:
* ASD fix
* OVR replacement
* AC condensor replaced
* AC converted to R134a (AC does need regassing now, however)
* Front engine mounts
* MOT
* Service

(Have receipts for the above). Prior to this, the MB service booklet is stamped up to 144,720m, dated 12/11/02. Mostly at Hughes of Beaconsfield. So there's a gap of about 5.5 yrs and 10,000m, where the second owner obviously didn't use the car very much.

Mileage is now 161,700ish and I'm using it so it may go up a few hundred or so.

I'm in Woodbridge, just off the A12 near Ipswich.

One and only bump. If it doesn't sell this month, sadly I'll part out the most valuable bits and then scrap it.
