Might be interest for someone. Car looks dirty but might be pics. Interesting designo paintwork and interior, 38k miles but I think still overpriced at £8k.

Wonder if the plate is included?
 
Nice has the later style gearbox too. Well specced and I recon that Designo combo is rather interesting although the wood needs to be darker in my opinion.
 
unusual wood .. not sure it goes with the blue leather though!
 
I thought wood was in the USA C43's.
 
With tiptronic this C43 is a very rare beast, less than 100 manufactured world wide IIRC.
 
Looks a little high to me - maybe it's just the wheel tyre combination, but there's a lot of space under that rear arch.
 
Yeah, looks way to high - Maybe its US spec or somthing, what with the wood aswell?

I've seen designo wood on continental C43's so isnt just a US spec thing.
IMHO it looks better than the fake carbon fiber trim I have in mine.

Overall its a gorgeous C43 and makes a change from all the silver and black ones.

..........38k miles but I think still overpriced at £8k.

Personally if this cars condition reflects the mileage then £8k isn't a great deal of money to pay for a low mileage AMG provided that you plan on keeping her mint and the milege low.

Should be some movement in the price but there comes a point in certain cars lives where a general 'market' price can't be applied.

Better than a leggy C32 surely!! :confused:
 
I think its better valued at about £7k tops?

My uncles mint designo-green C43 (1 of 5 in the world) only got £4800. Fair enough it had 90k miles but it was still mint thoughout with the AMG brakes done too.

I agree, its hard to value these vehicles, but at the end of the day its a near 10-year old 4.3L V8 in an economic climate trying to drive out big cars.

I'm pretty sure an enthusiast or specialist company will purchase this and chuck a premium on it. There are some people out there who will pay substantial amounts for the right colour and spec...and mileage!

Thanks.
 
I don't know why people choose very light coloured yellow wood for their cars (I believe Chestnut is one) - it looks like dog's diarrhoea IMO.

Dogs Diarrhoea is normally greenish - MB also do that colour, Diarrhoea in German is: Designo ;)

Thanks.

That was a lovely car but a very niche one....
 
Yes, leary colour to say the least. 2 of the owners had been in the family, 2 of my uncles. The first bought it for £17k a couple years ago and my other uncle bought it off him for £12k I think.

I'm pretty sure a gentleman from Ireland bought the car.
