Hi
My first post on here due to the fact my wife is looking at getting an S reg (1998) Mercedes C240 Elegance Estate.
It’s a lovely looking car (Silver) with 12 months MOT and 120k on the clock.
She is looking at buying it privately at a price of £1000.
Like many Mercs this age there is some rust (bonnet and boot lip, wheel arches and a few small spots on door panels and bonnet) None of these are really major in themselves but obviously the concern is she wanted to know if this is something that will suddenly erupt everywhere
Other than that the car is clean, fab interior, good mechanically and drives really well (although the PAS does make sound when turning the wheel but I think this is the normal servo pumping sound)
Just after some advice please if possible. What do the member here thing of this model, the rust issue, the price etc.
All comments welcome as she is very keen to buy it
Thanks in advance
Mark
