C43 AMG w202 estate

Only 140-ish UK spec wagons apparently. ^This one doesn't 'feel' as loved as the one at 4* Classics; the front bumper is slightly misaligned and what did they use to clean the interior with? A pet hate of mine is shiny interior trim. Hopefully it would clean up properly. Still, a substantial wad of cash cheaper than the previous one .
Yeah I know what you mean about the interior, maybe someone got carried away with the silicone spray?! The 4-Star one is without doubt a better prospect, but the £6k saving would certainly leave plenty in the piggy bank for any remedial work.
 
Low mileage (61k) saloon on Auto Trader. Looks in good shape, plenty of recent work done too. Price looks a bit top heavy (£15k), but hopefully it sells...it can only be good for the rest of us!

Probably about right price wise, though the steering wheel is wrong, looks like a later or aftermarket one that has been retrimmed. Parking sensors are aftermarket too, and not factory Parktronic.

What is wrong with the steering wheel? It looks the same as mine but obviously with the purple to match the seats and has the AMG embossing in the airbag too. Just wondering what the differences are. Mine is a later car than this so it may be obvious to those in the know.

Also, where would the Parktronic display be in the S202? I don’t have it either and I’m not going to drill my bumper for non OEM parts but I am curious.

Apologies, now I look at my old wheel it looks correct. What threw me was the wheel shape to the side of the horn buttons, looked more pronounced that I remembered, note to self, fact check before opening mouth/typing on keyboard...

Parktronic display was central on the dash, but mounted quite far back towards the windscreen.

Ah, ok. My CLK had parktronic with the display on the dash but for the front and the rear was in the top of the rear seat so you could see it in the mirror. I assumed it would have been in the rear roof somehow.

I have a PDC kit that is a magnetic tape that you stick behind the bumper that I might fit to mine. I took it off a car a long time ago as it want great so I’m sat on the fence as to whether I bother.
 
The blue one is nice though, I've followed his progress on Instagram (viperautovalet). The guy runs his own detailing company so coupled with the recent respray it's probably flawless body-wise. Just needs the front bumper bar.

I notice it's got pink coolant in too rather than blue. A very minor niggle I know, but that's the sort of thing that stands out to sad bastards like me 😂

Yep spotted that, not good.
 
I can never find the adverts for these cars, can you include some links to them? Blue one looks like eBay to me.
Had a look at his Insta posts, certainly looks beautiful in blue.

They're on Car & Classic.



The silver one is a parts car at best. Given the state of panels, I'd imagine the sills and floorpans are gone. Probably the battery well, towing eye spring mounts and rear chassis legs too.
