The W204-series C-Class arrived in Australia in late 2007 and was immediately recognised for its balance of design, safety, driving dynamics and build quality. It went on to win Wheels Magazine’s Car of the Year award in 2008 and quickly established itself as the benchmark in the segment.
This particular example is a 2010 Mercedes-Benz C200 Kompressor Avantgarde Special Edition, finished in Palladium Silver (792) with a Black interior. As one of the very last of the supercharged W204 models, and specified as a Special Edition, it is notably well-optioned and represents the final iteration of the proven Kompressor drivetrain before the transition to turbocharged engines.
Delivered new by Mercedes-Benz McIntosh of Mosman to its one and only owner — also a Mosman local — this car has travelled 120,060 kilometres from new and presents as an exceptionally well cared for example.
Importantly, it has been serviced exclusively by Mercedes-Benz of Mosman from new, right through to the end of 2025, with the most recent service completed at 114,623km (B Service). It is accompanied by receipts for every service completed from new, along with its original books, manuals and three keys — a rare level of documentation and continuity.
Being a Special Edition and the final run of the supercharged W204, this example is heavily optioned and features:
oWhite contrast stitching to seats and interior trim oReverse camera oBi-Xenon headlights oFactory navigation oHarman/Kardon sound system oElectric glass sunroof oHeated front seats oSE alloy wheels oSporty silver interior trim oAvantgarde sports suspension
Under the bonnet is the proven 1.8-litre supercharged four-cylinder engine producing 135kW and 250Nm, paired with Mercedes-Benz’s refined 5-speed automatic transmission. The Kompressor engine delivers smooth, linear power and a distinct character that many enthusiasts prefer over later turbocharged variants.
In terms of presentation, the vehicle remains in excellent condition inside and out. The Palladium Silver paintwork retains strong gloss and depth, the body presents straight and clean, and the interior shows minimal wear consistent with careful long-term ownership. The white stitching and silver trim give the cabin a noticeably more contemporary and sporting feel than standard examples.
A genuine one-owner, fully Mercedes-Benz dealer serviced Special Edition — particularly one of the final supercharged W204s — is increasingly difficult to source. This is a well-documented, highly specified and properly maintained example that will appeal to buyers seeking a strong provenance car rather than a typical used C-Class.
