Decent honest 212 with interior other than black!

High miles but loads of detailed history and not black/black!
Just came across this if it's of interest to anyone

As you say John, high-ish Miles.
I’m not too sure about that colour personally. It seems neither blue nor grey and a bit “weak”, but things do look different in person.

Looks like a decent spec especially with the 9 spd gearbox

Not even run in for another 10k

I quite like that, most certainly the interior is right

exactly the same combo as mine, nice when there clean.

Hmmmm, hadn't spotted that, not convinced the 212 ever had the 9G, I thought that only came with the 213?

7G box?

I think the 9spd box came in towards the end of 212 facelift production only on the bigger engined cars probably to help sales so circa 2015/16

that's good to know, never knew that....as you say, makes it a decent car for someone

Yes agreed John definitely a good buy - the OM642 doesn’t seem to suffer from the NOx sensor problems that the OM651 engines seem to be plagued with - the jury is still out on the Adblue injection system reliability but to date that seems fairly robust

Yes this is true. I have a late 212, E350, and it has a 9 speed box
