This W204-generation Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Estate is a powerful and highly practical high-performance wagon, offered with a strong maintenance history and enhanced with a couple of discerning performance upgrades. Under the bonnet sits a naturally aspirated 6.2-litre V8 with a Stage-3 tune, now understood to deliver up to 380kW (510HP) to the rear wheels via a seven-speed automatic transmission with paddle shift. The tune also raises the torque to 700NM. This original Australian-market example was first registered in February 2009, and has been with the seller and fourth owner for nearly ten months. The odometer shows 163,579 Kms from new. This C63 AMG Estate has been fitted with an Electronic Throttle Management power enhancement, which can be adjusted using an on-board computer located under the driver’s side dashboard. It has also been upgraded with a Stage-3 engine tune via an EVS computer chip. This example is finished in the refined shade of Palladium Silver Metallic, over a black leather-trimmed interior, featuring embossed ‘AMG’ emblems on the front headrests, and brushed aluminium-effect and wood veneer trim. It rides on a set of 18-inch AMG five-spoke alloy wheels finished in gloss-gunmetal with diamond-cut accents, framing silver-toned AMG-branded callipers and fitted with Michelin Pilot Sport 5 tyres. Equipment includes front and rear parking sensors, an electric tilt/slide glass sunroof, cruise control, a fold-out COMAND infotainment system with satellite navigation, dual-zone automatic climate-controlled air conditioning, switchable comfort, sports, and manual shift driving modes, and electrically adjustable heated front seats with three-position memory as well as steering wheel position memory. The car comes with two stamped service booklets, a warning triangle, a jack, tools, a spare wheel, the first aid kit, a warranty booklet, all the owner’s manuals with a black wallet, two keys, a reflective car cover, a specification print-out, and a folder containing a large collection of service/ maintenance invoices. Please refer to the photo gallery to assess the exterior and interior condition. Specific notes from the seller include: some stone chips on the front bumper and a couple on the bonnet, age-related wear on the driver’s seat bolster, wear on the top of the steering wheel, slight wear on the gear knob, and a blemish on the right-hand rear seat base. The seller notes that the head bolts were replaced by a Mercedes-Benz dealer at around 81,000 Kms, the automatic rain sensing wiper function does not work, and the handbrake warning light stays on, even when the handbrake is off.
