Inside the immaculate boot area is the original warning triangle, first aid kit, jack, and tool roll. Factory build stickers and options label remain in the boot floor and both inner door shuts. Luxurious comfort to all occupants with Mercedes-Benz traits throughout. ENGINE & TRANSMISSION The Mercedes V-engine of 3199cc displacement produces 218bhp at 5700rpm and 310Nm torque at 4600rpm to achieve a top speed of 146mph and 0-62 in just 8.3 seconds. The engine bay is exceptionally clean. The standard 5 speed automatic transmission with winter/sport modes and Tipshift Function adapts to your driving manner to offer gear changes to suit your mood. A powerful, smooth and effortless driving experience. WHEELS, TYRES & BRAKES The factory fitted seven spoke alloys wheels are original and virtually perfect, still retaining the correct diamond cut out rim which is often surrendered upon refurbishment. The original factory Pirelli P6000 tyres of size 205/55 R15 remain fitted with masses of tread, but due to age it is recommended that renewal is made and these are preserved for originality. The spare wheel is the unused Pirelli P6000 item still showing the coloured banding to the tread. The anti-lock braking system with Brake Assist (BAS) offers absolute stopping power to install complete peace of mind. HISTORY FILE First registered on 26th July 2002 by Mercedes-Benz of Chichester, this outstanding example has covered an incredibly low 25,894 miles from new. This top of the range Avantgarde edition was further specified with many desirable factory options, clear was the no-expense spared mentality of the first owner which happened to be the Royal Bank of Scotland! The vehicle V5 document names Royal Bank of Scotland as the first owner, however soon after the much-publicised tax-payer bailout of £45 Billion in October 2008 whereby the then Chief Executive, Fred Goodwin, was later stripped of his Knighthood and partial pension benefits, the Mercedes along with other luxury items owned by the bank was quickly placed into storage. It was deemed deeply unpalatable and inappropriate for such items to remain in ownership considering the government bailout, so in 2015 the Mercedes was offered for sale. The black leather A5 wallet holds all handbooks, radio guides and dealer literature as well as the service booklet which along with history file records show main dealer and Mercedes Benz specialist servicing. Indeed, the vehicle was serviced solely by the supplying main dealer before and during the bank’s turmoil. Completing the history file is three sets of Mercedes remote keys. MOT March 2020, HPI Clear.
