I never had any leaks. Not sure if the previous owner did it.

I’m sure there are no odometer issues or rollbacks.

May 9th, 2022 at 6:46pm ESTBolo80 (7) Seller 0It looks MB Market has to upload them. They should be visible within minutes. May 9th, 2022 at 6:45pm ESTjradcliffe (21) 0Ok May 9th, 2022 at 6:43pm ESTjradcliffe (21) 0@Bolo80 I'm looking for the attachments but cannot locate. May 9th, 2022 at 6:41pm ESTBolo80 (7) Seller 0@jradcliffe I appreciate your input and i’d like to see a screenshot of the “concerns” from that report. I’m not sure what type of clerical error happened but EpicVIN’s report is not accurate. Please check attached screenshots of full VMI report that supersedes any other report by Carfax, Epic VIN, etc. In 2014 and 2017 the car was still with it’s first owner and I don’t see why somebody that owned the car for 15 years and barely drove it 2000 miles/year, decides all of a sudden to roll back the odometer. Should I mention how complicated these vehicles are and how difficult would be to make that happen without leaving a trace?!!! I understand you not wanting to bid again but I’d like to keep everyone else informed. Please check the last 4 pictures I just attached. May 9th, 2022 at 2:43pm ESTjradcliffe (21) 0Anyone like the full report send your email to me [email protected]. And it is not a baseless allegation. By the way Mercedes dealer and techs use Epic VINMay 9th, 2022 at 1:27pm ESTBolo80 (7) Seller 2Due to its audacity I won’t even bother arguing. It’s been taken regularly to Mercedes dealers. Never heard of Epic VIN being so reliable except radclif’s comment. May 9th, 2022 at 12:23pm ESTSharleclair (1) 1@jradcliffe You cant make allegations like that with "If I recall" and not providing a copy of the report. Also, why is "EPIC VIN" supposed to be a more trusted source than Carfax? Which has already been provided? How, precisely, would the original owner (who had the car from new through 2018) roll back the odometer? And why? Did Rallye Motors of Long Island - the mercedes dealer where he regularly serviced the car from new - "roll back" the odometer for him? What the heck is EPIC VIN anyway? Do you work for them or something? haha I think you might want to re-evaluate your claims and think twice before stating them publicly. May 9th, 2022 at 12:22pm ESTAR80sCedes (36) 2@jradcliffe It's pretty tough to manipulate the digital odometers on these cars and is much more plausible that mileage was fat-fingered when input by admin at service. Which would make sense considering Carfax offers corrections for mistakes like that. I've never used "EPIC VIN" but knowing Carfax, I'm more inclined to think it's just clerical. May 9th, 2022 at 11:50am ESTjradcliffe (21) 0After I placed a bid I ran an EPIC VIN report on this car. It showed 2 likely odometer concerns, so I am no longer interested in this car. I caution that Carfax is not entirely accurate and depends on the reader making sense out of the information. The EPIC VIN report states that the Odometer Reading has 2 known mileage rollbacks. If I recall correctly it occurred in 2014 and again in 2017. If you are bidding on this car, be sure to get your own car report.
