MB C36 AMG on TradeMe

[jjs 64]

With 4 hours to go and current bid at $10k, this NZ new car looks like it could be a very good buy for someone.

I've always had a soft spot for these!

Has anyone here been to look at the car?

Don't think all of his cars are repos...

Anyway, someone got a bargain. $10,700 for a NZ New C36 AMG

One of these seriosly smoked my 328i but i didnt mind at least it was a german made automobile.

i was quite surprized not many C class mercs have that kinda power

What a disgusting dash though. It looks like a tractor !

those things do haul but they are ugly. sorry but i dont consider any merc good looking. except for pre 80's

just my 2 cents

[Greg111 13]

I don't think the car itself is anything spectacular but AMG sure know how to spruce those engines up.

Bargain price.....wish I had seen it earlier!!

Havent driven one, but have drive a C43 and it was absolutetely MENTAL. Who cares if its ugly! Its fast.

Strangely back for sale at the same place after being sold "no reserve". Does strat1 work there or something?

whoever has the cash should definitely front up and grab it.We have a 1996 C36 and from my driving experience are definitely the best packaged performance saloon of their age, a heap of stopping power (brakes of S600 Coupe), solid gearbox(again out of the S600 Coupe), wicked sounding and performing engine and impressive handling for a sedan.The 94's do have a uglier interior but all things aside , your still getting a very cheap performance sedan!

Thats why I posted the link in the first place. These are rare cars, that are very underrated in NZ. Less than $11k is an absolute steal. A C43 would be awesome too, but like the C36 they are something that seldom come up for sale.

Have you got some pics / more info on your one?

Pics will come tomorrow when I pull the camera out

Info?Its as stated a 1996 C36 , at purchase had done 86k , now down 116k.Have had for around 4 years now and we have never had a problem with it.The car is stock minus the catalytic converter being removed.Sits on the standard 17" AMG monoblocks but am in the process of per swaying the old man to buy a set of the 18" Monoblocks , which give it a real tough look.With the car only clocking up 30k in the past 4 years it has had no problems at all apart from the central locking key packing in once , which immobilized the car but wasn't too much of a hassle as it happened at home and the guys from EC Mercedez came out as sorted it out pronto (highly recommended Mercedes specialists) .
