EXTERIOR
This wonderful one owner from new example is finished in pristine Mercedes Benz Polar White (code 149). The original paintwork boasts a bright pure shine with uniform finish and linear gaps to the factory panels. Structurally perfect having been garaged from new, this beautiful car has been meticulously preserved. All trim sections, glass, original dealer number plate, and badges are damage free and the clean engine bay remains factory standard with all stickers intact. A stone chip to the nearside headlamp is visible. A pampered, cherished example of modern classic Mercedes-Benz saloon.

INTERIOR
The legendary quality craftsmanship from Mercedes-Benz is all apparent to any occupant of this remarkable example. Positively contoured seats trimmed in original Blue Fabric (code 016) are beautifully clean and provide excellent levels of comfort. The seats have resisted wear brilliantly aside from one small section to the upper driver's seat bolster where the material has become slightly thin. The spotless blue carpeting has been protected from new with tailor made Mercedes-Benz over mats. The boot area is perfect with the tool roll, spare wheel and warning triangle correctly stored, as well as the unopened first aid kit stored in the rear parcel shelf compartment. Even the original supplying dealer tax disc holder remains in the windscreen. The twin rear headrests lower remotely at the touch of a button on the dashboard! A quiet, relaxed and well preserved interior, the embodiment of Mercedes-Benz quality.

ENGINE & TRANSMISSION
The renowned four cylinder twin overhead camshaft Mercedes-Benz engine is uncompromising in its refinement and durability when maintenance is sustained. Full main dealer and specialist Mercedes servicing has firmly upheld this standard with whisper quiet and smooth performance a delight. Displacing 1799cc, a top speed of 120mph and 0-62.5mph time of 13.0 seconds achieved. The optional four speed automatic transmission with Tempomat offers an effortless relaxed driving manner.

WHEELS, TYRES & BRAKES
Factory standard 15" pressed steel wheels with pristine recently acquired hubcaps (yet to be fitted) are shod in quality matching Michelin Energy 185/65 R15 tyres with excellent tread remaining. Dual-circuit power brakes with discs all round and anti-lock (ABS) assistance bring the car up to a straight and steady halt.

HISTORY FILE
Full Mercedes-Benz Main Dealer and specialist service history and only 67,770 miles from new set this car well aside from the usual early C-Class offerings. First registered on 5th May 1995 by Mercedes-Benz Main Agent Reliance Motors of Chingford , this example was purchased new by Mr R Richards who has remained the only ever keeper. An original new car sales invoice documents a purchase price of £20,140 including listed optional extras as central front armrest (£170), alarm system (£416.64) and radio cassette (£474.70). The service booklet houses 16 stamps from the supplying dealer and renowned Mercedes-Benz specialist Mercedes Motor Aid (previously Merc-Aid) which leave in no doubt the genuine low mileage and clearly illustrate the extensive and fastidious care this vehicle has enjoyed. All handbooks, radio guides and dealer literature as well as an original sales brochure complete the history file for this lovely vehicle, now very rare in such original and preserved condition.
