| I'm going to do a warranty comparison and find the best available, I think. It's also just been MOT'd so that's good for another year. Cheers all. |

As the car is high up everything feels quicker anyway 
Picking it up Thursday now, after the rear arms are done and it's had a full valet. Can't wait, I'll update the thread when I get it.

The deal is done. Got £650 knocked off the price, picking it up Tuesday.
I am now terrified and excited.
Thanks for the tips, Tim. |

| Just noticed your comments about key fobs, unfortunately there's only one, but I'm assuming I could replace it in the near future for around £150 ish (seems the standard charge for new fobs). |

Hi Tim,
The suspension went up and down just fine, and all the 4x4 systems selected OK with no warnings. I've been offered a 2 year unlimited warranty which the chap says will cover parts and labou ... |

Cheers Tim,
The low range test was fine. The wheels are original, they've just been refurbed. The lower arms are being done as well this week, so overall it looks pretty good.
I drove it around ... |

| Thanks Tim, useful tip! If they're real wheels it looks like a reasonable find as they have just done a lot of work on it. |

| Oh dear, I attached them as images. Guess it didn't work! My limit is really 17,500 and I'm not really willing to go below 28-30mpg on motorway trips, so I think the petrol will be too thirsty for me. ... |

| Nice to see the AA warranty is useful. I'm off to see a TDv6 2008 HSE today and the AA gold warranty is something they offer. |

Hi Tim. Thanks for replying. The car isn't tan interior, it's actually black. My mistake, I've been looking at far too many of them!
I'm going to look at it this morning, I'll take the buyers guide ... |

Hi all,
To cut a long story short, I'm getting rid of my 2015 leased Mercedes C250 after having a spinal op and I need to get something with a much higher seating position. The C250 is a beautiful, ... |
