I thought I cleaned too much. Until I saw this and we have the same mileage

sunil I would argue even brand new undercarriages don't look that good!!

someone spent a lot a lot of time detailing the underbelly

 

Just wait a few years and your bottom will look very nasty these are the free bee options MB gives all owners as a surprise buying premium vehicles!
Do you have any shops doing rustproof prevention wax oiling the cavities?
Protect your car while it's still fresh then it's too late!

Will cost you a few hundrerd bucks but well worth the money if you plan to keep your car for many years?

 

Very nice car, seems cheap. Mine is almost the exact same but a few years younger and a few less miles, and I would put it around 45-50K.

 

seems cheap? The current bid is at $27k approx ... it'll go for much more over the next four days

 

Ask yourself a question, why would one spend so much time and effort cleaning and detailing the under carriage unless they have something to hide? Yes you are right, it's the RUST that people like to hide. this car needs to be gone over with a fine tooth comb not to mention it's a FL car with a duplicate title.

Run Forest Gump run.

 

Hopefully!

 

I saw that and thought... this is TOO clean.

 

I've seen other Mercedes on BAT with similar pristine undercarriages, it might be this same seller. On one of the other cars the guy explained the extensive process they go through in cleaning up the underside. I think they just want to present the nicest example possible to command a higher price.

 

No reason to spend countless number of hours and thousands of dollars on cleaning an under carriage of a 50K miles daily driver.

 

if i had a lift and some way to easily clean the underside i would do it as frequently as i clean the rest of it. Donut just posted a video about some dry ice pressure cleaner that seemed fun.

 

Spend $500 to make $1000. I'm in.

 

It's a lot of plastic shiner like wet tire or 303 ... and prolly was power washed before ... $50

 

Remembered that I'd taken a screenshot of the seller's cleaning process..

 

The more shinier the undercarriage is, the more potential of rust issue there is. Before I bought my current wagon, I passed on a one owner 2016 wagon with 9000 miles from a FLorida Mercedes dealership who won't CPO the vehicle

When i got the undercarriage pictures, it explained why they won't CPO it, it was all rust

Also the undercarriage is so pristine yet the seller didn't bother cleaning he inside, look at the interior pictures especially the floor mats.

Run Forest Run

 

Hmmmm
floor mats condition is an interesting point
Wonder If they drove through one of the S Fla high water tide floods and it ended of rusting

 

Interesting service history.

The car has Ceramic brakes

At 15K miles front brake rotors and pad changed along with new ires

At 23K miles the rear brake pads and rotors changed

By 27K miles, car already had had 3 sets of tires replaced.

On the other hand, seems to have good options and good service records.

Flori-dah especially south, is a very interesting place to buy a car----- Tread with great caution
