441.000km are on the odometer of this 2009 S204. Looking at it, sitting in it or driving it, you would never be able to tell. That's the quality we expect and miss from the father of all car brands, Mercedes Benz.
This car was delivered new in 2009 in Barcelona and changed owners just once in 2012 at roughly 120.000km. Since then, the owner has covered an almost steady 30.000km per year. The OM646 in the 220 CDI makes this possible.
With a 6-speed manual, a tow hook and in Estate form, this car is a great balance between workhorse and presentable family car. Equipped with part leather interior, electric front seats, dual-zone automatic climate control, multimedia screen, Tempomat, automatic headlights, front and rear parking sensors and a plethora of convenience features, it's an excellent companion for someone looking for a cheap, reliable and economical traveller.
Many of these cars were used as taxis, police cars and various public services, especially in Germany, where their odometers often surpass the 800.000km mark. Many of them were then exported and sold with a discount on their kms, and their condition is so good after so much use, that it seems believable. Speaks volumes about their durability.
Even though our car hasn't been manipulated, it still shows some signs of wear and age. The paint has blemishes all around and some minor trim pieces are missing. The interior is in good condition but the driver's seat bolster has a small tear and the steering wheel presents some cracking.
Owning and maintaining a high-mileage hero comes with its advantages and disadvantages. Nothing is more eco friendly than driving a car that has already been produced, but keeping one of these cars on the road also takes some love.
This Estate is sold with a 12-month/15.000km European warranty, a valid ITV until 04/26, two keys, and all of its books and papers.
