Time has come to move on my awesome C43. No expense has been spared during my three years of ownership. As the local MB commented on Wednesday, having put it through its MOT, it is the best we have seen for many years. They have one other that they work on but it apparently does not even compare, in a good way!

You all know what they are about so by all means pm me if you are interested and require more info. Car will be put on classifieds over the coming weeks so I'm simply placing it here first to see if any members may be interested.

In brief:

133k
Last serviced at 129k (A)
FSH
Gearbox service 126k
MOT March 2016 (every MOT in a folder stacked of papers / invoices)
Both keys
Immaculate in silver with a gloss black roof - different but really does look the part!!
White/black leather seats - again, not a mark to be seen
Original 18's monos - professionally refurbished last month, diamond cut rim with light grey inserts and AMG hubs - look awesome in my view. Original and untouched mono spare in boot
Rare, I believe, Factory options inc f/r parking sensors / original sat nav (don't use it mind!) centre console unit / folding mirrors
Recent MPS2's all round

Various work done during my ownership inc -

front discs and pads at 126k
Drag link replaced at 128k
Front suspension arms and ball joints replaced at 130k
Lambda sensor replaced at 131k
Fuel pump and air mass sensor replaced at 132k

Only thing that I would do to make perfect would be the front bumper - car is pretty much spotless other than that. Previous owner, of 7 years I think, had his own classic car body shop in Weybridge so I think the car may be known by a few on here.

Can't seem to upload decent pics here so pm me with an email address and I'll ping over some pics when I can. I'm in no particular rush - serious offers only please, this has to be one of the cleanest C43's around today and will be sorely missed.

Cheers, Ade

Ok, one of two things has happened here - either there's nobody in the market for a quality C43 or I have completely lost the plot on price! (Looking at others currently advertised at the time i felt 4.5 to 5k to be about right but perhaps not!!)

Fearing it may be the latter I will now be open to sensible offers. Cheers, Ade
 
Sold.

So the search for a sound E55 begins...:o)
