Gorgeous C43 Estate

[c955]

I can buy this fabulous car, I only wish I could afford to own/run it too!


Charles Of Windsor : Mercedes-Benz C Class C43 Amg

 

[BTB 500]

Colour isn't my personal cup of tea but looks nice apart from that!

Hi,
It certainly looks nice, though i don,t like those V8 badges on the wings, look tacky IMO, and it has what i consider the rarest option (apart from Tip that is) Parktronic

seeing a car like that makes me pine after a W202 again

just looked again.. no parktronic on that one..

 

[KillerHERTZ]

Yep, doesnt have Parktronic! Goods a good example (apart from the tacky side badges, dont care if they are an OEM option*)

Wonder if the gearbox is healthy?



*Not OEM on the W202 I know

The add says parking sensors and the switch is in the centre console.

That switch is for the rear window wiper.

It has no sensors on the bumpers, nor the display in the centre of the dash under the windscreen.

No keen on the outside colour or the inside colour to be honest.

Hi,
Due to the lighting which those photo's have been taken i don,t believe the display is visible, the rear wiper for the estate is on the dash to the left of the hazard switch.
The only switch to occupy that centre console position was Parctronic.
If you look carefully at the rear shot two sensors are visible.

im sure on the w202 the parktronic switch was down next to gearbox next to the mirror adjustment

The car does have rear parktronic you can see sensors (just about) in the rear picture and IIRC that is the correct location for the parktronic switch too in the W202/W210. Im guessing it does not have the front dash indicator because it has no front sensors

Agreed as this pic of mine shows,

 

[KillerHERTZ]

It would appear I was mistaken

Nowt like a good debate about a button on a dash

My own personal experience of the stock quality at this establishment is not good at all. Lots of shiny yet fault-ridden paint, not much prep, variances between advert description and actual, and attitudinal issues with the chap I dealt with (who i think was the proprietor).
I'd go there again if it was a niche car or spec, but would probably set off with a fatalistic viewpoint...
