2003 W203 C200k Avantgarde SE Auto Saloon

[oilit]

Two owner from new C200K Mercedes Avantgarde SE

This is the model with the lowered AMG suspension and brake kit, and AMG front sports seats. I am the second owner, the first is a good friend of mine, so I have known the car all its life, and I can say there have been no body repairs or accident damage repairs.

First registered on 4/11/2003 by Mercedes Benz of Swindon, and has had main dealer servicing as follows:-

11/6/04 14141 miles @ Mercedes Benz of Swindon

MOT Certificates showing:-

• November 4th 2006 - 68676 miles
• August 25th 2007 - 84278 miles
• August 29th 2008 - 104682 miles
• August 29th 2009 - 127794 miles
• September 14th 2010 - 147395 miles
• September 17th 2011 164993 miles

Most of the miles have been done on the motorway, which is generally considered to be better for engines since they operate at a regular temperature, and puts less strain on other items such as steering and brakes etc. than town driving.

There are also receipts for all work done on the car which total £4983 since I have owned it (around 4 years) - again mostly routine service work and tyres. The only other things that have been replaced are in tank fuel pump, thermostat, rear high level brake light, and brakes. This car has only ever let me down once - and that was the fuel pump.

The car has the following extras:-

• Folding rear seats allowing long items to be carried through the boot
• Partial electric front seats and leather sports seats
• Automatic transmission with tiptronic and sport and comfort settings
• AMG Sport brake and accelerator pedals
• Air conditioned central cubby box
• Automatic lights
• Rain sensing wipers
• CD Storage case in glove box
• Auto dimming rear view mirror
• Cruise Control
• Front fog lights
• Headlamp washers
• Folding rear headrests
• First aid kit
• Genuine Mercedes Mats fitted from new (drivers side has a small hole in it but no damage has occurred to the carpet underneath)
• Aluminium sport trim
• Two tone leather steering wheel
• Black leather seats
• Both sets of keys
• Full manual set

It has done 167k miles, it has a new MOT until 16th September 2012.
Tax expires end of October.
I have the V5C/2 as the V5 went off for a private plate to be removed, which has now been done, so I expect the V5 to be here in the next 7-10 days.

As you would expect with the mileage and age there are a few marks on the car:-

Bonnet has a small dent where a rock bounced off the road - just visible in picture to the left of bonnet badge when looking from front of car.
The windscreen has a couple of chips
The near side rear bumper has a scratch on it - and a few chips on the rear bumper where loading into boot has made marks.
The passengers side front door has a small dent/crease on it just near the moulding - nothing too serious
The near side rear roof has a scratch on it from the black roof rail to the door - caused by somebody placing a box on the roof with a metal strap on it !
It needs a couple of tyres - off side front and off side rear.
The black vertical door trims where front doors meet rear doors have some corrosion at the tops - regrettably Mercedes highlighted it to me but wouldn't cover it on mobilo life as its considered trim and not bodywork.
There may be other smaller stone chips and scratches - but from memory these are the major ones, please come to view if you want to see all marks.
