Notable as the first AMG model to be manufactured (rather than completed) at the famous tuner's Affalterbach facility, the W202 C43 was also the first C-Class to be powered by Mercedes-Benz's mighty M113 engine. Developing a quoted 306bhp/302lbft of torque, the naturally aspirated V8 was allied to five-speed automatic transmission. Reputedly capable of 0-60mph in 5.7 seconds and an electronically limited 155mph, the W202 C43 AMG was only in production from 1997-2000 by which time some 4,200 had been sold worldwide.
First registered on 6th September 1999, ‘A13 BSM’ was delivered in iconic Mercedes Silver Metallic complemented by two-tone Black and Silver leather upholstery and AMG Monoblock alloy wheels. Amenities include heated power seats, climate control, aftermarket radio/CD/Bluetooth, full size unused spare, first aid kit, warning triangle and tool kit. Entering the current (fourth) ownership earlier this year, the C43 is reported to come with its original service pack showing a ‘full service history’ with no fewer than 11 main dealer stamps and 10 specialist stamps, the most recent of which was less than 4,000 miles ago.
Described as having ‘good condition’ paintwork and bodywork, the vendor also advises that there is a small amount of rust bubbling on the rear arches and a small bubble on the roof, which should be easy enough to rectify. The vendor describes the car to be mechanically in ‘very good condition’ and that all components ‘work as they should’. He further describes the interior as being in ‘very good’ condition with the no wear to the driver’s bolster. This rare German sports saloon is supplied with a file full of invoices, 9 MOTs and the owner’s manual along with the stamped service book.
