HISTORY FILE
Quite simply this is out the box, First registered on the 04-06-1999 to a Mr Paine of Hampshire by supplying Mercedes-Benz dealer Caffyns Wessex Ltd, Mr Paine cherished the vehicle for many years before Mrs Paine(2nd owner) took over the rains in March 2004(still within the same family)
Mrs Paine then went on to further cherish the vehicle until September 2019(twenty years) only selling to a family friend a Miss Brett(third keeper) who retained the vehicle until April 2024 upon which circumstances changed and it was time to move to a more practical vehicle, It so then went to a long standing customer who actually never used it simply because it's too good and after much deliberation decided to part with it only if JF CLASSIC CARS were to purchase knowing it's gone to the best home it possibly can go to so here we have a low ownership and equally low mileage stunning example.
