Mercedes SLK 250 CDI
Purchasing a C350 CDI 265 BHP.

Hi there,

I am thinking of purchasing a C350 CDI 265 BHP V6. The car seems great and has just had a full inspection service with filter changes and new tyres.

However looking over the service history there was a gap between 7754 miles and 33245, at least these are the records on the electronic service history. The car is now on 40000 miles and has just been serviced as stated.

Due to the previous gap between 7754 miles and 33245 should I avoid this car or could it be OK as it has nice features and is the colour I want.

Any advice is appreciated.

Doesn't sound too bad, usually people might take their cars to a specialist or their Indy spec and services don't get recorded. Doesn't necessarily mean anything is bad.
