Good spot! That's a really good spec with the Tiptronic box, Xenons, Parktronic and original phone kit etc. Extra points for still having the star on the engine cover too!!
Shame about the doom and gloom spec interior, but I appreciate the 2-tone options aren't for everyone.
Nice MOT history too, lovely car
I think it was still only an option, and only standard on the C55 conversion.
You could well be right, they're so rare though it's hard to say!
Bit rough around the edges for £10k, I hope it sells at that though!
Agree not a 10k car - no chance.
Reduced to £7800.
N192 PVL, clean looking low mileage C36, although with a few gremlins from the description. Looks like it was stored for a long time judging by the MOT history.

That's strong money and I'm pleased as punch.
Another post-bump; Elliott who bought the C43/55 off me, messaged to say it was sold. Last year I had a nice offer on my C36 and I was tempted to let it go and buy back the C45/55. Then my mind went down the route of buy a C43 estate and an scabby CLK55/E55 to do the conversion on that (having 3 Beagles makes an estate much more appealing). Decided I have enough going on with work and jobs at home to postpone that idea for a while.
New here, so hello to all.
DamnNew here, so hello to all.
I've been trying to find something really, really nice for a while now, and when this one came up I had high hopes.
Touchshift, parking sensors, xenons - yes!
I went to view the car earlier today and let's just say that I couldn't disagree more with the following statement from the seller:
"The vendor currently grades the C43 with regards to the engine, gearbox, interior, and electrics all as 'Excellent' with the paintwork and bodywork as ‘Very Good’."
Even though the car has 72k on the clock the bodywork is full of scratches, dings, and chips. It broke my heart but there was not a single panel that doesn't require attention. Misaligned, panels, bumpers, mould on seals. The car stood somewhere for a long while but it was not loved. The Interior was far from excellent as well. All of that, without even being able to turn the key on...
£12 - £14k +15% - hiiiiiiighly optimistic, but that's just my opinion.
On to the next one.
. Good job you went to view it then by the sound of it! There's nothing worse than when the description doesn't fit the actual condition, such a waste of time!I just find it weird that auction houses are getting away with such descriptions. When questioned, all I heard was that the description is provided by the owner and I was referred to T&Cs, specifically the warranty section. It's all there, official and it all makes sense but you still can't help but to feel a bit misled.Damn
Yeah I can't fault you for feeling misled, double disappointing when you think you've found a great car with a rare spec like that one. It's not like there are a dozen other Tiptronic C43s around.
