Description

Bought for long distance holidays, which it has excelled at. Only selling because we're consolidating 2 cars to 1. In a couple of years it has gone to the Scottish Highlands, the French Alps twice, the Pyrenees, the French Riviera and the Loire valley. 700 pound Carplay / DAB / phone / Aux installation - can't be done cheaper as it requires a 300 pound cable to work. Brand new alloy wheels and high quality all-season tyres from Vredestein - proven effective in the French Alp snow. Refurbished suspension with new front springs/dampers and rear air springs. Handling and ride are excellent. The larger petrol engines of these facelift cars have 700 pounds annual road tax and reliability problems, while the diesels are not ULEZ/LEZ compliant so these petrol 200 Kompressors are now the sweet spot of the range. Two annual services at Mercedes specialists. The previous owner was a Mercedes specialist garage in SW London who used it for commuting and did considerable mechanical recommissioning including: engine timing chain, tensioner and associated work, brake discs and pads all round, fuel pump, front balljoints, folding exterior mirrors fitted. The interior is in very good clean condition with no noticeable wear to the cloth seats. The car has aircon, cruise control, auto-dimming rear view mirror, a pop-up cupholder and lots of storage to make long journeys relaxing. Bad points - there are some scratches on the roof from a previous owner, rear wheelarches have some surface rust in the lower front sections. Paint is generally in good condition and is smooth after clay bar treatment but there are some minor marks here and there consistent with a 17 year old car. A fantastic family car.
