I say 2.5 owners because the first owner only had it for a very short time, think it may have been dealer.
I've had the car since 2003 Mileage is 141,200

Very good condition, has some rust on rear wheel arches where paint is bubbling a bit. Brake pads are down to about 2mm (MOT pass is 1.5mm)
MOT due July, I will MOT it again with Mercedes Basingstoke
Rubber suspension bushes may benefit from replacement, Mercedes Basingstoke indicated they weren't fully perished, and didn't change them. Very slow oil seepage from underneath the engine. There will be a few drops of oil on ground if the car is left for about 2 days. Leaving the car parked for a day no oil marks on ground are visible. Again Mercedes Basingstoke advised it is weeping at such a slow rate that it's not worth fixing unless it is more serious, and requires topping up of the oil.
Engine is smooth, alloys reasonable condition, with only a little kerbing as they have been refurbished a couple of years ago.
No major dents, very few scratches on paintwork. Regarding the rust on the rear arches that 'may' be a slim chance that is addressed by Mercedes UK if sufficiently pressurized to entertain their 30 year corrosion warranty with full Mercedes Benz service history cars.
