Looks quite nice. It might need tyres though, and possibly tracking checked going by mot history.

Sticky buttons, bubbled airbag and a very excited handbrake... it has some work to do but looks a nice straight example otherwise, I wouldn't be fussed about the four services as long as they have been regularly spaced and the oil has been done in between.

So 4 services in 13 years- is that an issue? It looks pretty mint,

Reason I ask is I’m supposed to service my car every 12m or 20k.... which I’ve done to date .

It’s done 4000km in a year (dec 14 car with 17600km on clock) and Mercedes want a grand for the pleasure. I’m of the thought to leave it for another 6/9 months or so..,just feel I’m feathering their pocket for something that isn’t really needed!

Would it put a buyer off? Hasn’t even done the annual service milestone in its lifetime!

A three service 30,000 mile service package with breakdown cover on the mustang is £597 with Ford
2500 miles , if the wheels are still going round I'd leave it
My B Class is 4 years old now it's had 4 services but none by Mercedes, last one a week ago , service and MOT £151 , what do they do on a diesel, change the oil and filters and make sure nothing is falling off.

£1000 is taking the ****

Aren't most GS priced around 24 to 28k these days....Apart from the odd dealer with perfect cars asking more.

Seen quite a few sit there for quite a while so not sure if any have sold or what the prices were. Seems a very flat market for this stuff at the moment.

Better sell mine for a silly price then

Weird that both these Gransports both have decent holes in their service history. I wonder if that will affect them?

Mine has just ticked over 15k miles and has had an annual service at MD or reputed specialist every year from 2008 at one year old until 2018. Just about to get its 12th service next month at AV

Indeed....sounds a bit extreme maybe but that is the schedule so it has been adhered to from new regardless of miles.

:):):) Not sure about mine off the top of my head, but as I have seen before, stamps in book doesn’t equate to servicing, unless you have the receipts for each one, which is then excellent of course....Think I’ve receipts for half the stamps in my book....
