@thembmarket thank you! That helps - nice to see US emissions mentioned there, which might help with registering in CA and keeping total import shipping/duties/taxes/etc. well under $10k (thanks MBMarket for having the shipping quote tool here on the site - this is great!).

An additional photo showing the emissions stickers under the hood has been added to the gallery.
@gtgoff My sticker is as good as new. Posting shortly
@Mtlw202 thank you! Have spent some of the morning researching the headaches associated with importing into California. Seems it'll be a bit time-consuming, maybe a little expensive regardless, but helpful to see what all's there as I unfortunately last year discovered what a nightmare California can be even when an under-hood emissions sticker has been damaged or partially scraped off.
@gtgoff I’ll get some pics shortly
Do you have close-up pics of the under-hood stickers related to emissions?

https://www.helpspanish.cbp.gov/s/article/Article-278?language=en_US Vehicle build date was August 1998 therefore simplified import process for US winner. Please view the link. Thanks
@G_imel Based on what I know, the fact that the vehicle is 25 years and older makes it much easier to import to the US. However, laws may vary from one state to another so I would check with your local state DMV in order to get accurate info. I have included in another post the name and website of a local exporter that can assist with the entire process for you. Thanks
How would a US based buyer go about getting the car out of the country and registered to n the US?
Will she stay or will she go? Thank you to everyone who has bid and shown interest thus far and best of luck. I remain available to answer any of your questions.

@V8cem Shipping to Germany can be arranged. Please reach out to my contact Darrell at Xporteez Logistics for further details. Xporteez.com Thanks
@Ernest I’ll get some pics of the undercarriage in the next few days. Thanks
Hi. Any chance we could get pictures of the undercarriage. Thanks.
Yes, the biodegradable wiring harness. I have a W124 as well, and made sure when I was looking for one that the harness had already been taken care of, at a MB dealer no less. By the way, the bio harnesses plagued other Euro cars of the same era, such as some BMWs and Volvos. It was a Bosch thing, originally, I believe. And the replacement harnesses (at least the one on my car) were from Delphi, the GM spinoff.
I am about to turn 300,000 miles on mine. Great daily driver.
@Harrdware you forgot the lack of biodegradable engine harnesses
An investment grade example of a currently underrated but important part of AMG's history with Mercedes. Every bit the performance equal to the venerated 500E/E500 cars of 92-95, in a more compact package, with a less complicated (and now legendary) M113 engine, an extra gear in the transmission, no fussy rear leveling system, and easy OBD-2 diagnostics. I certainly enjoy my C43 every time I jump into it for a spirited drive. The W202 C43s are hard enough to find in general - one with these low miles and in this condition is a unicorn.
@Mtlw202 Germany
@V8cem Where in particular would you want the car shipped to? I can put you in contact with a local shipping company to provide you details Thanks
Hi, would you be help to send it to Europe?
@Puffincars Thank you for your interest. I don’t have any paint meter pics but can try to get those for you over the next few days. I am the 4th owner. Purchased the car from a good friend/collecter in 2018 with 36,000 Kms. This is indicated in the registration document for that transaction. My friend had purchased the vehicle in 2012 and I have a copy of his purchase contract indicating a mileage reading of 23,540 kms. Other service receipts show mileage as indicated by a local Mercedes Benz dealer at 19,195 kms in 2006 and and 14,857 kms in 2003. I’ll try to up load all this later this week.
Hi, any paint meter pics? How many owners? Any proof of mileage?
