Yes I don't think it has Parktronic, although it does have front and rear PDC. There are quite a few Parktronic control units on eBay, is it a big job to get it retro fitted?I don't know it, but could you get one with a few more options for that money? - For example, Parktronic (although it appears to have the display, there's no button by the gear lever to mute it, and there are no sensors in the bumpers) which is very useful in my experience.
I agree it looks in good condition, and has done only ~6,000 miles a year.
I thought so. Could do with sat nav, but I was thinking of either retro fitting a factory sat nav unit, or get a double din installed (not sure if the latter would look rubbish though, subject to whether the edges are slightly curved on the original sat nav unit).Just right on options, less to go wrong. Could with command and 1K discount.

Nice one, thank you very much! Didn't even realise it had Parktronic, bonus!Here's its datacard.
Its not too bad on spec, its has cornering bi-xenons, multicontour heated seats, parktronic and, rarest of all, the cupholder.
PD think the pdc switch is on the upper control panel, not by the gearlever.
Tbh I didn't realise there was a difference either, I specifically filtered out cars that didn't come with front and rear PDC when I commenced my search for these cars not even factoring in Parktronic, looks like it has it though as per the data card provided by Codger49 !Pardon my ignorance, but whats the difference between parktronic and PDC?? As I was under the impression it was the same thing?
It definitely does have sensors in the bumpers BTW.
FWIW I think its about right for the money from a trader, paid that for an 09 plate approx 18 months ago, for one with 115k, 1 owner immaculate condition, with a FMBSH, privately.

“Parktronic” is Mercedes’ name for BMW’s similar “PDC” (Park Distance Control). They’re both ultrasonic measuring systems for guidance as to the distance of obstacles when parking, giving visual and/or audible warnings when getting closer. Parktronic is no more than this and shouldn’t be confused with other parking aids such as “Active Parking Assist”.Pardon my ignorance, but whats the difference between parktronic and PDC??
