An immaculate C350 Estate with just 14,346 miles from new.

 

This is quite a rare and interesting C-Class. At first glance it looks quite innocuous; smaller wheels, no AMG body styling, clear glass. Yet its 302bhp 3.5-litre V6 means it is really rather rapid. It’s 0-62mph time is around 5.5 seconds, yet it can still achieve 40mpg on a run.

Plus, of course, it’s ULEZ (and other clean air zones) compliant. And the road tax is just £345 a year.

 

We have just brought this car in from Japan. We bring these cars over because, as in this case, it’s a rare model seldom found here, but also because it is impossible to find cars in such good condition in the UK. With just 14k miles from new, and coming from a country that doesn’t use road salt and generally has a kinder climate, it’s no surprise this C350 is in absolutely exceptional condition. The Calcite White paintwork is unmarked the interior

 

The specification is predictably high with memory/heated seats, parking sensors, reverse camera, Intelligent Light System, auto-dimming mirrors, navigation, cruise, climate control. The full spec is listed below.

This car has the 17in alloys and the standard, not Sport, suspension, which is great if you value ride comfort.

The COMAND system has been changed over the UK/Euro specification.

 

Just serviced and matching, recent Continental tyres all round.

 

In summary, with estate practicality, low-key elegant looks yet fantastic performance this is such a versatile all-rounder. With just 14k miles it has barely been broken in. What tremendous value.
