1998 MERCEDES C230

CLEAN CARFAX!

LOCALLY OWNED!

NO RESERVE!

CHECK OUT THE NEARLY 60 PICS BELOW!

OUR C230 LOOKS & RUNS GOOD!  IT IS NOT MECHANICALLY PERFECT, BUT CAN BE DRIVEN AS IT IS IF YOUR STATE DOESN'T REQUIRE INSPECTIONS.

THIS MERCEDES HAS A NICE BODY AND NICE PAINT OVERALL.  THE "SMOKE SILVER" BEIGE PAINT LOOKS GOOD WITH ONLY MINOR CHIPS AND SCRATCHES HERE AND THERE.

THE 18" AFTERMARKET ALLOY WHEELS HAVE SOME MINOR CURB DAMAGE, BUT NOTHING TOO BAD. THE LOW-PROFILE TIRES HAVE ABOUT 30% TREAD REMAINING.

THE 2.3L-l4 ENGINE FIRES RIGHT UP AND RUNS VERY GOOD WITH EXCELLENT POWER AND ACCELERATION.  THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION SHIFTS THROUGH THE GEARS NICELY. 

MECHANICALLY, THIS MERCEDES C230 NEEDS SOME WORK.  THE CAR WON'T PASS STATE INSPECTION DUE TO:  A BAD LOWER RIGHT-FRONT BALL JOINT, A BAD LOWER LEFT-FRONT BALL JOINT, A BAD REAR TRANSMISSION MOUNT, AND A PROBLEM WITH THE DRIVER'S POWER SEAT (IT WON'T MOVE).  NON-STATE INSPECTION MECHANICAL ISSUES ARE: THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS "ON" (WE HAVE NOT DIAGNOSED WHY, BUT IT IS NOT AFFECTING THE WAY THE ENGINE RUNS), THE FRONT PASSENGER POWER SEAT DOESN'T WORK, AND THE DRIVESHAFT CENTER SUPPORT BEARING IS BAD (CAUSES A CLUNK IN THE REAR WHEN LETTING OFF THE ACCELERATOR).  ALSO, THIS BENZ IS 2600 MILES PAST DUE FOR IT'S MAINTENANCE INTERVAL SERVICE.

THIS BENZ HAS A CURRENT VA STATE INSPECTION STICKER (EXPIRES 8/14), BUT IT WILL NOT PASS AGAIN DUE TO THE AFOREMENTIONED PROBLEMS.

ALL THE ELECTRONIC FEATURES AND OPTIONS WORK PROPERLY EXCEPT FOR: THE DUAL POWER FRONT SEATS (THEY WON'T MOVE), THE REAR SPEAKERS ARE BAD (THEY WORK, BUT CAN'T HANDLE BASS), THE DISPLAY SCREEN FOR THE RADIO HAS A BLACK STREAK ON IT THAT MAKES IT HARDER TO READ, THE SUNROOF ONLY OPENS A FEW INCHES AT A TIME (YOU MUST CONTINUOUSLY KEEP PUSHING THE BUTTON TO MAKE IT OPEN ALL THE WAY), AND THE BULB FAILURE LIGHT IS PERIODICALLY "ON" DUE TO THE INSTALLED AFTERMARKET HID HEADLIGHTS.

THE GOOD NEWS...THE CAR RUNS GOOD, DRIVES GOOD, LOOKS GOOD, MOST OF THE ELECTRONIC FEATURES WORK, AND THE A/C BLOWS COLD!

Please contact ROB CARPENTER at 757-898-1200 with questions.

THE INTERIOR OF THIS MERCEDES C230 LOOKS GOOD!  THE ONLY BLEMISHES OF NOTE ARE: SOME DYE WEAR ON THE FRONT SEATS, A CRACK IN THE DRIVER'S DOOR PANEL ARMREST AND SOME HEADLINER MATERIAL ON THE SUNROOF SUNSHADE THAT IS COMING UNGLUED.

THIS MERCEDES IS WELL EQUIPPED WITH:  HEATED SEATS, WOOD TRIM, SUNROOF, LEATHER STEERING WHEEL, LEATHER SPORT SEATS, HID HEADLIGHTS, AND MORE!

INCLUDES 1 KEY AND AN OWNER'S MANUAL.
