Looks stunning in those pictures, a low mileage example in that condition is a rare find.

Does anyone know whether the above is a 112 engine or 272?

Registered to Audi??? So even Audi know Mercs are better.

that looks like a very nice example of one of those. I did have to chuckle when reading the ad and it said it was 'registered to Audi until 2014' WTF??? were Audi so desperate to make a decent car they BOUGHT a Mercedes?????

Interesting as our recent search for a C-class/CLK would have encompassed this if diesel.

Lovely exterior colour and nice spec. When I was sussing out the car from the dealer I'd be wondering why someone with such a nice low miles car would fit an ultra budget tyre/s (can only see one but may have more)... and also why it would be owned by Audi and do so few miles.

But if you were happy about these they are just nit picking besides the raft of questions and problems the history of many 10yr old cars throw up.

Looks lovely to me.
Mine had two cheap Czechoslovakian tyres put on just so it would pass the mot for the sale. Just worn them out and replaced with RS3's. Car had still obviously been pampered in its' 2 previous lives.

Hi, thanks for all your replies, didn't proceed with the purchase as i was a bit worried about the 272 engine.
