This 2004 Mercedes-Benz C240 was first titled and registered in Virginia on January 14, 2004 where it remained under the selling dealer’s service with the first owner through late 2021. The current owner and seller purchased in December 2021 with 53,535 miles on the odometer and brought the car to California. Finished in Travertine Beige Metallic (693) over Java MB-Tex (154), this sedan is powered by a 2.6-liter V6 paired with a five-speed automatic transmission. Features include dual-zone climate control, automatic headlamps, a power rear sunshade, multi-function steering wheel, and heated front seats. Most recently the car received a B-Service under the current owners care consisting of an oil and filter change and a multi-point inspection. This C240 shows 55k miles and is offered by the seller with factory literature, a current California smog certificate, two keys, a clean Carfax report, and a clean California title.
The car is finished in Travertine Beige Metallic (693) with paint matched bumpers and impact strips featuring chrome accents. The seller reports the paintwork to be original and has recently undergone a correction and ceramic coating. Exterior features include halogen headlamps with bumper integrated fog lamps, a power sunroof, and auto-dimming mirrors. No damage is shown on the included Carfax and the seller reports the exterior to be blemish-free.
Factory 16″ wheels are shown with OEM silver-painted center caps featuring chrome star centers. BF Goodrich Advantage tires are shown and measure 205/55 on all four corners.
The cabin is trimmed in Java MB-Tex (154) with color-matched carpets, dashboard, steering wheel, and shift boot. OEM floor mats are seen in place and the rear seats show power-dropping rear headrests. The door trim and center console are trimmed in Burl Wood. Factory features include a power-operated sunroof, central locking, power windows, manually adjustable heated front seats, power rear sunshade, and dual zone climate control. The factory head unit has been swapped for a Boss Double DIN unit with backup camera, Bluetooth and Apple CarPlay capabilities.
The leather-wrapped multi-function steering wheel frames instrumentation including a 160-mph speedometer, a 7k-rpm tachometer, and gauges for fuel level and coolant temperature. The digital odometer shows 55k miles, approximately 2k of which have been added by the seller. Additionally, the LCD screen displays trip functions, infotainment information, and various settings.
The M112 2.6-liter V6 is mated to a five-speed automatic transmission that sends power to the rear wheels. Output was rated at 168 horsepower and 177 lb-ft of torque when new. Service records are included in the Carfax and show regular service and maintenance. Most recently the car received a B-Service under the current owners care consisting of an oil and filter change and a multi-point inspection.
The Carfax report lists no accidents or prior damage along with linear mileage updates and 20 service history records. This C240 shows 55k miles and is offered by the seller with factory literature, a current California smog certificate, two keys, a clean Carfax report, and a clean California title.
The W203 C-Class was a game changer in the early 2000's. Styled as a mini-S-Class, it offered the same curves as it's bigger brother as the more modest option from dealers. There’s a lot to like going into this one, including the clean history and traceable dealer services. Moreover, this example shows very well in Travertine Beige and offers options like heated seats and a rear power sunshade. With only 55k miles, there's plenty of life left in this car and arguably will be a better long-term solution compared to the more mundane eco-sedans offered today. There’s a good chance this car was treated just as nicely throughout its life as it was the day it was purchased new and will continue to be with the next owner.
