Question Should I give up on buying this 43?

Hi everyone,

I am new to the forum.

I am looking at buying a c43. 2018 -2021 with a 6 cylinders, and it challenging.

I am in Canada and most of what I see is high mileage or worrying stuff on carfax(es).

A dealer has a c43 assembled in South Africa, no service records for 24 000 kms.
Showing 7 owner changes. I am told that a lot of them are dealer taking the car as an exchange and resold
47kCAD
Is it worth pursuing?

Another one has one with 99800km for 43kCAD. I find the mileage to be too high and the price not reflecting the mileage IMO.

My other alternatives would be a 2018 m340i/ m440i with MPPSK or a 2020 m340i

I am at loss. Do you have any advice?

Thanks

Wrong sub forum. Try here. https://mbworld.org/forums/c450-c43-amg-216/

That said to answer your question, you could try clutch (I have no experience with them) then get the vehicle PPIed.
