Spanner can help turn your car details into an advert.
Could suit you if…
- Your usual group fits within 4 seats, including the driver. Check passenger space and any child-seat fit in person.
- You regularly make longer journeys: diesel may fit that pattern better than a routine of mostly short trips. Compare actual running costs.
- You would prefer less gear changing in traffic: the recorded automatic transmission may suit. Try how this exact gearbox behaves on a test drive.
Think twice if…
- You need to carry more than 4 people together: the advert records 4 seats, including the driver.
- Most journeys are short school runs or local trips: check whether this diesel has a particulate filter and what longer runs its handbook requires.
- You need predictable ownership costs: at around 14 years old and 142,857 km, check maintenance records and upcoming work. Mileage alone does not tell you the car's condition.
- You need servicing to fit a tight budget: Spanner estimates higher maintenance costs for this type. Get quotes for the exact engine and gearbox before committing.
This is general guidance about this type of car and your needs — not an inspection or approval of this individual car.
This generation (W204/C‑Class, facelift era) commonly uses Mercedes' OM651 diesel engines paired with the 7G‑Tronic automatic. Diesel C‑Class cars are economical on long runs but can suffer clogged DPFs and soot buildup if mostly used for short urban journeys; the automatic gearbox needs periodic fluid/filter changes at the recommended interval. Genuine Mercedes parts are easy to get in Ireland but can be pricey compared with mainstream brands.
- DPF and EGR condition – look for signs of frequent regeneration, soot smell, or a history of DPF replacement/cleaning if the car did mostly short trips
- Automatic gearbox behaviour and service history – ensure smooth shifts, no hesitation or harsh downshifts and confirm gearbox oil/filter change intervals were followed
- Turbo operation and smoke on acceleration – black or blue smoke can indicate turbo, injector or oil‑seal issues
- Suspension and steering for knocks or uneven tyre wear – check front wishbones/ball joints, drop links and steering rack for play
- Boot/arch and lower sill corrosion or sunroof leaks – inspect underside of wheelarches and bootlid seals for rust or water ingress
