This 2000 Mercedes-Benz E430 sedan was reportedly purchased in El Cajon, CA and has remained in California since new. The car shows 69k miles and is finished in Black (040) over an Anthracite (211) leather interior. Power is provided by a 4.3-liter V8 paired with a five-speed automatic transmission, and equipment includes automatic climate control, power-adjustable front seats, a power sunroof, automatic dimming mirrors and the Elegance package. Service within the last year includes a new 02 sensor, cabin air filters, and cleaned AC coils, and an oil & filter service was just performed in preparation for the sale. This E430 is now offered with manufacturer’s literature, partial service records, an original spare and tool roll, a clean Carfax report, and a clean California title in the seller’s name.

The cabin is trimmed with Anthracite (211) leather and features burl wood accents on the center console, doors, and dash panel. Interior amenities include power-adjustable front seats with three memory settings, dual-zone automatic climate control, an integrated garage door opener, and automatically dimming interior and exterior mirrors. The seller notes that the headliner is currently sagging and the dash shows a small crack on the top left corner of the passenger side airbag.

The MB Market Insights

The increasing value of the W210 chassis today isn't only in the low-mileage and rust-free examples such as this facelift E430. While the 69k miles, clean Carfax, and corrosion-free body (and underbody) of this car are exactly what you should be looking for in a W210, we're now seeing that buyers are gravitating towards these cars for other reasons as well. The first being ease of ownership thanks to the everlasting M113 engine which in itself is an engineering masterpiece from Mercedes offering robust power with matching reliability. The 722.6 transmission is equally as strong and this combination has been known to last for hundreds of thousands of miles with only basic upkeep. You won't find any air suspension components to replace or flashy touch screens here. The W210, still highly underrated to this day, is one of the best platforms for overall long term driveability and this E430 should prove to be another well-kept, long term survivor in the hands of a fellow enthusiast.

Hi everyone, welcome to the auction. The car has absolutely no rust what so ever. It has spent its entire life here in sunny San Diego. I will post undercarriage photos shortly! Please reach out with any questions!

@Koononyou If the Carfax is accurate, and no reason to think it’s not, then yes, Southern CA all it’s life. I’m going to guess that this is pretty clean underneath, but pictures showing axle boots and engine underside would be helpful in evaluating overall condition.

She's not perfect but IMHO this was the last great Mercedes. Great reliability, first true sport sedan with perfect combination of handling and power. Great gas millage because of the perfect balance of the curb weight to the engine. Car weighs about the same as a modern Camaro. Downside is rust unless you're willing to garage her over the winter (which I do). This is my second E430 and my first one was black. I still miss her, this is a beautiful car.

Pics of the undercarriage would be great if possible. Thank you.
