I don't get it. Good luck with the auction. I've owned 2 of these, both low mileage, currently have a '99 in the garage with less mileage than this. With the proper maintenance they last forever. Fun cars indeed. August 30th, 2022 at 2:03pm ESTMalek (5) Seller 3Couple hours left here so GLWA to all bidders.

Nothing here to lose stand by your comment August 29th, 2022 at 3:23am ESTMalek (5) Seller 0@MBsMBz yes he isAugust 29th, 2022 at 1:03am ESTMBsMBz (1) 0Just to clarify here, @derekbrowns , are you the previous owner?August 27th, 2022 at 7:58pm EST$14,900 bid placed by @AutoAvids313August 26th, 2022 at 1:36pm EST$12,150 bid placed by @MrNaplesAugust 26th, 2022 at 11:19am ESTGraves12 (9) 4I've never seen anyone get so worked up about some records haha. Print the images if you want them that bad. Looks like a great example of a C43 and the black on black combo is sharp! GLWA!August 26th, 2022 at 3:58am ESTderekbrowns (0) 0@malek There is only one reason why I have a folder full of stuff for a car I don't own and why you don't. Because you passed on it to save money. There is nothing shameful about that but I guess you won't be truthful about it because you already lied in your comments. You seem to just make stuff up to have an answer. Same as your story about the accident. That's not what happened but of course you wouldn't know. I have moved on from my transaction with you please stop mentioning me in your stories. https://d.img.vision/dkbnet/76C11627-2765-4B5B-96BF-2DB323EFC518.pngAugust 25th, 2022 at 4:22pm EST$11,900 bid placed by @AutoAvids313August 25th, 2022 at 4:06pm EST$9,000 bid placed by @ClassicAMGdriverAugust 24th, 2022 at 4:10pm ESTthembmarket (691) 0Photos of prior service records and a VMI have been added to the gallery. Thank you. August 24th, 2022 at 4:08pm ESTMalek (5) Seller 2@Rocketv8 I just double checked with the prior owner (he's the one who purchased the car on bringatrailer) and he doesn't have those physical copies. So as far as paper receipts I only have the ones during my ownership and prior are just picture copies. Edit: To clarify, the prior owner is demanding I send him money in order for him to release any prior docs he has for the car. I originally did not want to disclose that for his sake but the issue has been pressed. If the new owner would like to pursue them I am happy to pass along their information. ThanksAugust 24th, 2022 at 4:02pm ESTRocketv8 (1) 0@malek I already saw those records on that auction. That's what made me ask about them. All you had to do is say that you don't have them. A potential owner of a car like this would be interested in the documents that came with it. Documents that you apparently don't have even though they exist.. GLWTAAugust 24th, 2022 at 3:51pm ESTMalek (5) Seller 0@Rocketv8 Yes, no offense meant. I appreciate the questions and hope the prior docs will be uploaded soonAugust 24th, 2022 at 3:50pm ESTRocketv8 (1) 0"Probably just a spectator" .... decided to edit that? Probably for the best.August 24th, 2022 at 3:46pm ESTMalek (5) Seller 0@Rocketv8 I'm uploading the prior records and VMI from the bringatrailer listing here. These are the only records that exist prior to my ownership but I don't have physical copies of them. Hope that helps, thanksAugust 24th, 2022 at 3:16pm ESTRocketv8 (1) 0@malek So documentation before your ownership and damage pictures DO exist however you cannot provide either? Are you also deciding who is going to bid on your car and who isn't? I noticed that you turned down more money than this car sold for before the accident. I'm trying to get enough information to decide what it is worth to me unless you are not interested in my potential bid.August 24th, 2022 at 3:10pm ESTMalek (5) Seller 0@Rocketv8 you are more than welcomed to come check the car and take it to any mercedes dealership for inspection. Good luck If you are bidder August 24th, 2022 at 3:08pm ESTMalek (5) Seller 0@Rocketv8 I don't have previous documents in hand but they are all available online on bring a trailer where this car was purchased. The accident didn't cause any damage the previous owner had pics for it. A lady backed into the car in a parking lot.August 24th, 2022 at 2:15pm ESTRocketv8 (1) 1This car came up on classic.com and prior auction showed Mercedes service records for years. Do you have documentation before your ownership and are there any pictures of the damage or documentation from the accident?

Let's see how this goes...August 22nd, 2022 at 12:58pm EST$6,900 bid placed by @AutoAvids313August 19th, 2022 at 6:23pm EST$5,900 bid placed by @vaderadeAugust 19th, 2022 at 3:27pm ESTMalek (5) Seller 0@cavanok the damage on the front bumper was very minor didn't need painting. The bumper was painted before the accident. I replaced the suspension because I was hearing squeaks and it's not that costly so I did 4 sides.August 19th, 2022 at 2:52pm EST$2,202 bid placed by @cavanokAugust 19th, 2022 at 2:51pm ESTcavanok (4) 0Just curious on the minor damage in the carfax, ever hear from the prior owner what it was?
