Description
MOT until May 2026 with no advisories. New tyres and recent full service. First registered March 1997.
M104 straight six engine with 5 speed automatic gearbox.
I bought the car in December 2014 when it had 138000 miles, and have garaged it each year over the winter months to protect from winter road salt.
Now on 157600 miles.
I have had extensive work done to the car during my ownership, including:
Full professional respray in 2017 with new genuine Mercedes front wings.
Engine head gasket and various engine seals replaced at 145815 miles.
Replacement water pump and brake pipes.
Full suspension refresh at 146344 miles (new front and rear suspension arms/ bushes front and rear, track-rods, subframe bushes, lower wishbones, shock absorbers), engine and gearbox mounts, prop-shaft bush.
Stainless-steel exhaust and recent new catalytic converters.
Regularly serviced, most recently in February 2025 at 157282 miles with new spark plugs, air and pollen filters, oil and filter. Anti-freeze and brake fluid have also just been changed.
Additional work outside of regular service intervals includes gearbox fluid and filter changes, differential oil change, power steering fluid and filter, fuel filter, hydraulic roof fluid etc. Massive history file.
4 new Good-Year tyres fitted in April 2025.
Green-black metallic paint (code 189) with grey leather interior and black soft-top roof.
The soft-top is in excellent condition and working perfectly. Wind-deflector present.
Matching hardtop with padded cover and stand
16” alloy wheels.
Both remote keys present as is standard toolkit.
Will come with a quality indoor car cover.
Note the air-conditioning does not blow cold. Everything else working as it should (windows, mirrors, electrically adjustable memory seats etc.) Continental Bluetooth stereo fitted with Aux in and memory card functions but that looks in keeping with the car.
In excellent condition inside and out and drives very well.
