Moderate threat resurrection!

I went to look at the E350 CGI estate.

Quite a pleasant dealer - typical yard and old portacabin office but he was nice and there were some good cars.

The E350 was in seemingly good order. Clean inside and out, the engine sounded smooth and the history all checked out.

The heated seats (both front and rear) indications came on (red lights) but no heat from any position.

I did not have time to drive it but the dealer had no issue in me doing that another time.

So what about price? It is rare, being a petrol, which plays to it but how many people want these? I noticed he has increased the price again which is probably to attract interest but I’m not sure what it is ‘actually’ worth?

I would have thought closer to £8000 but hard to value.
