FLORIDA CAR
ONLY 79,000 MILES
BRIEF VEHICLE DESCRIPTION:
Due to increasing physical health limitations, it has become necessary to downsize and sell a few of our cars, including this nice Mercedes C230. This car is located 15 miles east of Erie, Pennsylvania in the town of North East, PA 16428.
My wife and I have been driving, maintaining, repairing, collecting and restoring older Mercedes Benz automobiles as a hobby for 40 years. We will try our best to be as specific as possible in our description, so you are aware of exactly what you are buying; keeping in mind it is a 1997 vehicle.
We purchased this Mercedes C-230 from a dealer in Florida in 2015. It’s a rust-free, two-owner Florida car with most of the original paint (see exterior comments below). It still looks and drives very nice, especially for a 1997. Do to my health limitations; we have only driven this car a couple hundred miles since purchase, so we have done little in regards to service since we purchased it. We have attached photos of the Auto Check report that came with the car for your review.
MECHANICAL COMMENTS:
This Mercedes C230 starts, runs and drives very nicely. There are no oil or fluid leaks and the air conditioning is ice cold. We also installed a new alternator and serpentine belt last fall. The electric sunroof does not open and we have not attempted to diagnose it. The power door locks work fine. Using the key in the passenger door or trunk will lock and unlock all doors, trunk and gas cap with one turn of the key. Included with the car are two keys and one remote (remote is not working). Due to disconnecting the battery, the cassette player is flashing code. We were planning to replace the cassette with a CD player if we kept the car. As far as we know, all other power options are in working order.
EXTERIOR COMMENTS:
The paint on this Mercedes is still pretty nice for a 1997 and mostly original, but not perfect. It has several imperfections, nicks and chips (see photos) and a couple areas that we feel paint may have been touched up in the past. The driver’s door above the molding may have been re-painted at some point. There is also a small area up high behind the passenger side rear door window that appears to have some repaint. It’s difficult to tell and only noticeable after close inspection, but we want you to be awaret. The alloy wheels are also very nice. The tires are beginning to show their age a bit, but have about 50% tread remaining.
INTERIOR COMMENTS:
The “simulated leather” seats in this Mercedes are nearly impeccable. There are no cracks in the dash or seats and carpet is absolutely beautiful. This car has never been smoked in and original owner’s manuals etc. are with the car.
