@AMG_pro if you will have similar car for 220k USD or even 50k USD more please let me know, I would be happy to buy one more
@AMG_pro Good to know that you know all market values, but I you definitely should check the last year sales of similar cars around the world to bring your fantasies back to life!))) There is one Nautical Blue car recently sold in Japan and Midnight Blue in US few months earlier, the both much worse than this one and with mileages over 110k kms...and the prices paid were higher than you expect. 1. No, I didn't. 2. No, I don't have. 3. I don't see any unusual things for starting the car in cold place after recent washing. 4. Oil and filter just before the auction.
@AMG_pro Really funny to get so many questions from new profiles with nearly same questions in the last day of the auction!))) Looks like not clever move to try to reduce the price by one guy, but anyway. First of all, after all this discussion with the fender, I'll upload some more videos of this part within the next hour. The car was sold in Japan a long time ago and I don't even imagine what you are speaking about, but I own it now and unlike you I saw it by myself personally and unlike you I inspected it personally, so as already mentioned few times earlier, there are few resprayed parts on the car and I literally can't find any marks of repair or damages. But if you are so interested in buying it and don't trust me, then why didn't you ask a specialist to inspect it like some people did? The exhaust is completely seen on the pics and there you can clearly see that the only part of it which has inner corrosion is thermal protection list. Of course the muffler doesn't need a replacement! It was a cold start video and if you thinks that how it starts sounds like there is a problem, ok, that's your opinion and I don't think so if we are speaking about 36 y.o. car with 75k kms. Regarding "scratching metal" sound, that's the most funny thing, because before I decided that I need to check my ears I asked 3 different friends of mine (who works with such cars every day) if they hear any "scratching metal" sound on the video...and nobody of them do. But I'll repeat, for me the most strange thing here is that you are asking questions like you are very interested in the car, but didn't even ask about its inspection during all 10 days, but decided to create a mess now) If you think that this way you could get the car for 100k, that won't work, sorry.
@Legend So, do you have a copy of the auction list and could send me via email? As I already mentioned, left rear fender has one respray without any marks of damage or repairs as well as all inside panels looks perfect and are original. There is nothing to hide on this car and if you still don't trust to your eyes, then maybe you should just come and see the car personally?! Very strange to write some stories here without seeing the car)
@Puffincars no, unfortunately I don't, otherwise I would add it here too. Meanwhile I tried to check the car at the CarVX before starting the auction and there is no info about it. So, if you are interested in buying the car, you are very welcome to inspect it, I'll contact you tomorrow with location and other details.
@puffincars I don't imagine what info do you have, but the car is available for inspection if you want to check everything personally.
@sirmathrocks the video is now available. Thank you!
@Puffincars the bonnet, front right fender, rear left door and rear left fender are just resprayed (under 200 thickness), all the rest body - factory paint. Unfortunately no proofs of the mileage on the papers yes, but there is no doubts the mileage is original when you see the car
@puffincars pretty sure
@sirmathrocks sorry for the delay, will be uploaded today.
@MBLover_126 Provided all the info, hope you got it. Thanks!
@MBLover_126 Sure, I would be happy if you can come to see the car. Can I ask you to send me a private message please? I'll forward you the location and contact info. Many thanks in advance!
@BlueridgeMB First of all many thanks for your interest in my car! To be honest I am afraid to upset you, there is nearly nothing about service works on this car and its engine. When I was buying it I checked the EU MB dealer database, but didn't find any history. Of course before I bought it I made full detailed inspection and saw that the car wasn't ever damaged or had any technical problems, except the only one which is still the main and biggest problem of this car - it is just staying parked during last 15+ years. Of course that doesn't mean that none cares about its condition, periodically I asked a friend of mine who has a workshop in Germany to take care of the car and do some maintenance needed. It looks like the previous owner made that in the same way. During my ownership it was kept in very well, warm and dry conditions as well as with its previous owner. At the moment it drives perfect (I also own original Widebody SEC DOHC) and there is no technical problems, nothing is broken or damaged, but it definitely needs some service to looks perfect in some places just because of its long time staying without driving. I would be happy to take videos of the cold start and driving within next couple of days as well as I'll try my best to take a video with endoscope you asked for. You are very welcome with any questions! Thank you!
@sirmathrocks to be honest I don't know for 100%, but as I can guess from the first list of the AMG papers which are seen on the pics the car was modified in Germany and then sent to Japan. But I don't want to cheat anyone, that's just my thoughts accordingly to the interpretation in the AMG paper
Hello Guys, I'll upload more pics of the engine bay including all the numbers at the beginning of the next week when I'll be in the garage. Many thanks for your interest!
