SUMMARY
Originally supplied by Mercedes-Benz of Oxford, this is one of the highest specification W203 Estates I've come across. It was bought by a titled gentleman (OBE) in March 2003, who was also the owner of a computer/ IT company. The car was subsequently passed to his son 2006, who kept it right up to 2015. In their tenure the car was maintained, with little regard to expense, and unlike the majority of Mercedes Estate cars, this car has been used sympathetically (NOT as a van!), so the interior remains unmarked and a very nice and cosseting place to be.
As you'd expect, this vehicle is in superb condition; there's not one blister anywhere, and the underside is equally in superb order too. When I first bought this car back in September 2017, I originally intended to use it myself, but on collecting it, it quickly became clear that it was far too good for the purpose I intended, so late last year, I sold it to one of my regular customers. He's now upgraded to an ML, and asked me if I wanted to buy it back; knowing how well he looks after his cars, I didn't have to be asked twice and I have to say, it's actually come back even better than it went; the 4000 miles he's covered in it have really been extremely beneficial, along with the care afforded to it by Sinclair Mercedes in Bridgend whilst it was in his tenure.
In addition to the low mileage, and it's excellent condition, it's the specification of this car that really sets it apart from the rest; it must have cost a small fortune when new; the specification list runs into a few pages!. Its also a real pleasure to drive too; the five cylinder OM612 Turbo Diesel has a very impressive delivery of low down torque, and makes this is a very quick car, yet still returns excellent fuel economy. You can also see from the pictures of the engine bay, that the engine doesn't suffer from the dreaded "black death" syndrome (solidified atomised diesel), that can affect these engines and is a result of failing injector seals.
So if you're looking for an exceptional, well maintained W203, with a superb level of specification, that hasn't been used as a van, this is it. Will it be a classic? I'm not sure, probably not, but as a practical, safe, fast and economical prestige vehicle, it's got many years of use still left in it. It will do the same as a car costing many times the price, without hemorrhaging its value on a daily basis, but equally won't look out of place in the Golf Club, outside MacDonald's or at the Supermarket.
THE MTSV DIFFERENCE
Unlike some, I don’t just simply go out, buy any old car, give it a good clean, then advertise it for more than the purchase price, disregarding any issues the car may have in the hope the new buyer won’t notice…I just couldn’t do that. The cars I source are carefully selected and I work very hard so that when my cars leave me, I have the satisfaction of knowing they are as good as they possibly can be within the constraints I have. As such I have many repeat customers and new customers that have been recommended via word of mouth…the ultimate accolade for anyone in business.
Any other questions, please feel free to contact me at using the button below or on the details below. I'm a firstly and foremostly a true car enthusiast of many, many years, and a Mercedes Club Member, so it's a pleasure to meet and speak to like-minded people.
Finally, I'm situated in Keighley, West Yorkshire (Postal Code Area BD21) which is approximately 11 miles from Skipton, and 20 miles West of Leeds.
