They do sell, it takes a while but worth the wait. Some may end up overseas too

Another C36, hopefully this thread has become a W202 AMG thread and not just C43's...

M339 ODA has previously been mentioned a couple of years ago when it went through Anglia Auctions, but I don't know what it finished on.
Looks quite honest, still has it's early one piece AMG badge and correct early amber side indicators.
Nothing scary in the MOT history, (though currently expired) other than a corrosion advisory in 2019. Paint looks patchy and flaky in places.
Leather but no A/C...
Could be a nice project

1995 MERCEDES-BENZ (W202) C36 AMG

A very usable example of the ‘90s performance saloon.

Previously mentioned on this thread, but I did not want to resurrect a 2 year old thread if everyone is happy with C36 invaders into this thread

W202 C36 Pre-Facelift wanted | Classifieds - Wanted

Yes, crappy words and pictures. The colour could be Emerald Black/Green Black metallic (189). My C43 is the same colour and it has a definite blue hue to it, shows on the V5c as Black

After a 2 year absence, M339 ODA is back up for sale. £13,500 BIN

One thing you must check on these 43's. Most need a complete rear end overhaul by now. They rust and the rubber joints deteriorate. Its an expensive job. Jack at work has done all of his on his 43 for sale.

S433 FOB
Had a message from Elliott who bought the C43/55 estate from me, he's off to NZ in the next few weeks and could do with it down the road before he leaves.

£7k drives it away!

If I wasn't up to my armpits in a juggling the sale of the C36 & CLK55 it would be back on my driveway for sure.
Message me if you want his details.

C43/55 Estate S433 FOB back up for sale. I guess Elliott is back from NZ.
Bids start at £2k. This could be sale of the century and will be watching with a view to sticking a cheeky bid in myself if it doesn't climb much.
Would stick it under a cover on the driveway until the market picks back up and hope the good lady wife doesn't notice.

Pardon our interruption...

How bad is the "surface rust" underneath Gareth? Just the usual patina, or is there a bit of work on the horizon?

The common areas, I cut-out and welded new in. Had already had some bits done in the past. I did sills to floor on n/s & o/s, rear drop down, towing eye and lower bulkhead to floor that rots out. I'll pm you some images. I wouldn't say it was any worse than another 202 of that era. It certainly wasn't as bad as my previous C43/55 saloon. Can't see it needing anything as I feel I was thorough, the plan at the time was to keep it.

Thanks. I did think it seemed odd that there's mention of rust in the advert considering you were prepping the car to keep. I guess it's just a case of Elliott being really open and honest? It looks a great car, it's on my watchlist too...just in case

I often wonder where mine ended up after Olly sold it ?
