Front bumper hanging down on RHS.
Rear bumper seems to have a bigger gap than my W202....

Has it been bumped?

yes!

must have sunroof, parctronic and xenons and be in any colour apart from Black prefrebaly Green Black.

I may be tempted by a low mileage C230K year 2000 (W202) in green black with some toys- I will throw the kompressor in the bin and bolt on my turbo.

This C43 dont look right for the mileage. The seat and steering wheel look far too past it for 66K and the hanging front bumper isnt helping either. The wiper park position is loosing it as well.

Nice big crack in the front bumper, that will be stupidly exbenzive...

Hi,
The front bumper hanging off the corner like that would,nt worry me to much, mine was perfect when I got it and mine is doing the same and has not been knocked, its come out of the bracket or the bracket is broken, very cheap to replace from MB and i believe its the same bracket as the smaller standard bumpers so i believe it could be inherent weakness as plastic gets old it gets brittle, rear bumper alignment is the same as mine.
Wiper problem (very common on a 202) would not stop me buying the car but i would use these things to negotiate a better price.
The seat and the steering wheel i would want too see better pics, as i would be concerned over the accuracy of the mileage shown.
But the above problem aside it does look like quite a clean example and a nice colour too.
I liked those style wheels and was gonna buy a set for one of my W202's, but now seeing them on a w202 I,m glad i did,nt buy a set.

That bumper may well have a crack in reality - look at this front on view, the left side right next to the number plate looks like it has a crack right down it. It looks like they may have been reversing, and pulled the bumper forwards...:

I agree.Looks like a 190E to me.
The mileage is very nice,just a shame for the rest except for the POWER of course.
The exhaust looks a bit dangling down.Not a bad price though.

You could well be right there, that's what I did to mine after parking it over a kerb that was a bit too high and the damage looked exactly the same. They're not cheap to replace either as I found out, so he probably chose not to.
I keep well clear of kerbs when parking ever since I got a new bumper...

Crack in front bumper explains why the bumper is hanging down on the corner.
But that damage could be repaired (plasticwelded & resprayed) or if i remember correctly Euromerc has a front bumper in stock.
I would still use this as a bargaining point, if i wanted it.
