1) Computer broken and only check emails at library 1-2 a week; so, CALL IF WANT IMMEDIATE RESPONSE.
2) **LOOKING TO TRADE** for vehicle in comparable condition and equal OR lesser value [really big on ANY kind of 2dr and must be automatic].; “However,” I will consider outright sale if you “make me an offer I can’t refuse.”. In the case of a swap, I will have to 1st check to see what the make and model of your “swap” does to car insurance rates to ensure rates go down and not up.
3) If it’s up, it’s available. Will ignore all “Is it available” and/or automated messages. THANK YOU.
PROS:
All the typical Mercedes "toys"; power sunroof, power trunk, auto door lock, auto rear head rests, auto driver seat, 6-cd changer in trunk, cassette player on console, Mercedes summer and winter floor mats, and original owner manuals w/radio code. Also, "brand new" Cooper Ultra Touring all the way around. Solid, heavy, and it's a Benz! Bought it 3 years ago from elderly male that stopped driving & literally “babied” it! Underneath is “pristine! He always had it garaged.
It's a late model which means Classic plates, car insurance rates, and NO emissions. It's my daily driver, so mileage will go up, but only very slightly; as I average a mere 1,100 mi. a year in my 3 years. The car is in good shape, and at 240k a Mercedes-Benz is just getting broken in.
CONS:
1) Drive shaft bracket needs replacing. Have part, just haven't done it yet because rarely driven; 2) You need to change the fuse for the radio. There are 2-fuse boxes and everything in German; so, didn't risk changing wrong one, and just driving without radio; 3) Windshield fluid light on. Filled it up and 1week later empty again. Too slow to see where the leak is from.
IF IT’S SO GREAT, WHY ARE YOU LOOKING TO TRADE/SELL?
Senior citizen on fixed income being “killed” by CT car insurance rates! Also, I hardly drive it except for Dr.’s appts. & shopping. 1.1k miles a year is NOT driving; but I still prefer to have some sort of transportation; thus, the preference for a trade. Senior/shared ride transportation sucks!
