There is very little wear to the seats, even the drivers bolster is in excellent condition. No signs of any previous leaks or damp to any of the car’s interior, the memory and heated seats are in full working order.

THE EXTERIOR


The car is finished in Astral Silver with matching grey leather.
As you might expect having won awards at the MB Club SEC day, the condition of this 560 is quite superb. The body is stunning with beautiful Astral Silver paintwork and unmarked bumper chromes and brightwork. Thanks to a lifetime of garaging the bodywork is in fantastic condition. The front and rear screens are original with no delamination or milking and the still wear their ‘Robinsons’ dealer stickers. (as do the number plates). 

The tyres are in superb condition having been replaced not long ago at 105,314 miles. Likewise the wheels are in first class condition with a very small amount of curbing but being under their original paint the current owner was reluctant to have them refurbished and keep the car as original as possible.

THE MECHANICS

The driving experience mirrors the car’s condition and drives how they should drive – it’s as tight and crisp as they come. The car starts first time from cold or hot and settles into tick over almost immediately. All warning lights extinguish immediately and runs at a constant temperature with perfect oil pressure.   

THE APPEAL

The Mercedes-Benz 560SEC was a top of the line S Coupe manufactured between 1986 and 1991. Powered by a 5.6L V8 engine, the 560 SEC matched power with comfort and refinement. It was well revered at the time and is still today considered a classic amongst many great cars of this era. If your looking to step into a classic Mercedes such as this youll want one that has been cared for appropriately and this example is just that. Low mileage for a 31 year old car, with all the right optional extras, fantastic service history and the condition speaks for itself. Whats not to like?

Come funzionano le offerte massime

Il processo di offerta massima ti permette di fare offerte senza preoccupazioni.

Inserisci la tua offerta massima e il sistema farà offerte automaticamente per assicurarsi che tu sia il miglior offerente - fino all'ammontare da te stabilito come tetto massimo.

Anti-sniping

Car & Classic contrasta il fenomeno dello “sniping”, ovvero il fenomeno dei rilanci all'ultimo secondo per vincere l'asta.

Se viene fatta un'offerta nei 3 minuti prima della chiusura dell'asta, la scadenza di questa viene automaticamente estesa di 2 minuti per permettere agli altri offerenti di reagire e, se lo desiderano, di rilanciare.

Incrementi di offerta automatica

  • Se la sua offerta massima è uguale o inferiore al prezzo di riserva, la sua offerta massima sarà applicata per intero se lei è il miglior offerente.
  • Se siete il miglior offerente e fate un'offerta massima superiore a quella di riserva, la riserva verrà automaticamente inserita come prima offerta.
    • Una volta raggiunta la riserva, Car & Classic si assicurerà che tu sia il miglior offerente utilizzando solo gli incrementi di offerta indicati di seguito.
    • Vi terremo in testa fino alla vostra offerta massima O all'incremento più vicino alla vostra offerta massima, a condizione che la vostra offerta massima sia sufficiente a coprire il valore dell'incremento.

Ammontare dell'offerta Incremento
Da £0 a £9,999 £100.00
Da £10,000 a £49,999 £250.00
Da £50,000 a £99,999 £500.00
£100,000 + £1,000.00

Superamento immediato dell'offerta

Quando piazzi un'offerta massima e questa viene immediatamente superata, questo significa che un altro offerente ha impostato una soglia di offerta massima superiore alla tua.

Puoi fare nuovamente un'offerta o impostare una soglia più alta di offerta massima e il nostro sistema rilancerà fino alla nuova soglia, cercando di portarti a essere il miglior offerente.

Offerte massime di pari ammontare

Quando ci sono due offerte massime di pari ammontare, quella impostata per prima è quella che viene considerata “migliore offerta”.

Pre-autorizzazione

Potremmo trattenere un piccolo importo di pre-autorizzazione sulla tua carta fino alla fine dell'asta, quando quest'ultimo verrà poi stornato. Se vinci, verrà prelevata una caparra che verrà detratta dal pagamento del prezzo di vendita per il veicolo e non comporta costi aggiuntivi per te.

Cosa sono le Offerte pre-asta?

Offerte pre-asta significa che avete la possibilità di fare offerte prima dell'inizio ufficiale dell'asta.
Verrà comunicato se si è il miglior offerente o meno all'inizio dell'asta.

Problema con l'offerta

Le offerte sono contrattualmente vincolanti. Per tutelare l'utente, sono previste alcune regole nel caso in cui si ritenga che sia stato digitato in modo errato. Si prega di controllare e modificare quanto inserito.
