The video in the advert shows what a state the interior is in too.
I’d love to ask them why they did that.

I laughed my socks off. I mean what kind of clunge biscuit does that to the exterior of a 240i, then proceeds to have random wires everywhere in the drivers footwell. Unbelievable.

"Clunge Biscuit", mate that's made my day

Talk about an acquired taste.

The fact they admit to spending 3.5k on that repaint (looks well enough done, but why bother?!). The fact they think any self-respecting couple would hire it as a wedding car. The fact they think it gets "loads of admiration from the public".

At least the seller is giving the next buyer the small mercy of not having to take that stupid bloody registration with it too.

Surely a wrap would have made more financial sense on that Merc? Unless the fancy paint job is hiding some other nastiness.

[kambites]

Is it an attempt to make it look like a Maybach?

[Escort3500]

Or maybe just a failed attempt to improve one of Merc’s ugliest models in recent years

I'd hate to see the living conditions of people who own said vehicles

That looks like a TVR colour described badly on the telephone.

Form over function. That is a hell of a front overhang though..

It’s got green brake discs - just in case there wasn’t enough green already.

How does that eve work? Presumably first time the brakes are used the paint comes off. Weird.

Similar enough....

I'm guessing it was for some sort of promotion (self?) but they must have already removed the graphics for whoever they are promoting before sale?
But why they would leave the stickers on is beyond me, it devalues the car by far more than the cost of removal.

The underlying colour looks OK though not what I'd have picked for one of these.

And it isn't an AMG or Brabus...
