Very nice. The interior is gorgeous, I’m yet to be convinced on the metallic green.
The “very slight” bubbling on the rear arches is bog standard for the W208 unfortunately and will be a constant battle.
I’d be tempted, but the seller lost me by spelling Parktronic incorrectly!

I like the colour and it’s of the era. (I’m colour blind)
Re the arch, are they pricey to swap out and respray and I wonder what the steering wobble issue.
If you dropped your hearing aid in there you'd never be able to find it!
So according to the owner it
"drives smoothly and tight with no unforeseen noises or rattles.
The car has been meticulously maintained and serviced every year, having £1000s spent on it"
So why hasn't the steering wobble been diagnosed and fixed and the rear arch corrosion addressed?

Mint Aero meets Werthers Originals!
Same interior I have in my 209, including the wear on the steering wheel, though mine is nowhere near as bad. The exterior colour is an acquired taste, though.

I'm a suckered for a car in an unusual colour.
Love it

What's not to like????
I like both, but not together as a colour scheme for a car.
