This 2002 Mercedes-Benz E430 sedan remained registered in North Carolina until it was acquired by the seller on BaT in January 2022. The car is powered by a 4.3-liter V8 paired with a five-speed automatic transmission and is finished in Desert Silver Metallic over beige leather upholstery. Equipment includes a sunroof, 17″ five-spoke wheels, power-adjustable front seats, an Alpine CD stereo, cruise control, and dual-zone automatic climate control. This W210 E430 has 69k miles and is now offered at no reserve by the seller on behalf of their father with a dashboard pad, service records, a Carfax report, and a clean North Carolina title in the owner’s name.
Desert Silver Metallic paint finishes the exterior, and additional details include a power-operated glass sunroof, fog lights, an eccentric-sweeping monoblade wiper, power side mirrors, and bright trim. The Carfax report lists accident damage to the front right in May 2002. The front bumper cover was refinished under previous ownership, and the windshield wiper blade was replaced in preparation for the sale. There are touched-up paint chips next to the left headlight, there is a scuff on the corner of the front bumper cover, and additional photos of the exterior condition are provided in the gallery below.
Factory 17″ wheels are mounted with 235/45 Continental PureContact tires that were installed in December 2022. The car is equipped with Automatic Slip Control (ASR) and an Electronic Stability Program (ESP). Stopping power is provided by four-wheel ventilated discs. The brake rotors and pads were replaced under previous ownership in 2022.
The cabin features power-adjustable front seats upholstered in beige leather, and amenities include front-seat position memory, an Alpine CD stereo, cruise control, and dual-zone automatic climate control.
The four-spoke leather-wrapped steering wheel frames a 160-mph speedometer and a tachometer with a 6k-rpm redline as well as gauges for coolant temperature and fuel level. The digital odometer indicates 69k miles, approximately 35k of which were added under current ownership. The steering wheel volume buttons do not work in connection with the aftermarket stereo, and the pixels in the instrument cluster ambient temperature display function intermittently.
The 4.3-liter V8 was factory rated at 275 horsepower and 295 lb-ft of torque. Work performed between 2022 and 2023 consisted of replacing the battery, alternator, water pump, accessory drive belt, air conditioning receiver drier, and one of the refrigerant lines. An oil change was performed in preparation for the sale.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a five-speed automatic transmission, which was serviced in December 2023.
Manufacturer’s literature, a dashboard pad, service records, and a set of discolored floor mats are included in the sale.
The Carfax report lists the aforementioned accident.
