W202 AMG prices have been all over the place for a while.
They seemed to bottom out around 5 years ago, they started creeping a little, but presentable looking examples were still around £4k.
Then some bright spark put a C36 up at £13k, it looked reasonably presentable, though the staggered wheels were fitted wrong.
After that sellers jumped on thinking if that's £13k, my POS has to be worth £8k.
Project cars were being touted for £4k.
At the moment very little is selling, the whole classic market looks deflated.
There are the odd ones selling; I was reliably informed a few months ago that Amari Supercars sold a nice C43 for £20k.
Fair play to them, looking at Mr Amari's stock list though, £20k is likely chump change for some of his clients.
Seeing the asking prices creeping, made me pull the trigger and look for a C43 earlier this year.
I very nearly bought a C43 Estate, seller wanted £5k (a bit of a project), I saw it at £3-£3.5k, he decided to keep it until the prices went up further. As far as I know it is still with him.
There is a very nice looking C43 estate up at £14k, been up for a long time.
Jay's red C43 estate is worth every penny, stunning and priced on the nose.
An early C36 on eBait, in Silver at £9k, looks reasonably honest, high miles, but nothing scary in the MOT history. But why oh why would you not spend
£25 on a new bonnet star! It's been for sale for a while, likely a £7k car in all honesty.
just my 0.02
edited to add; Abb beat me to it, teach me to be so wordy...
