It is a bad colour, solid colours on Mercs are not desirable.

The mileage is low for type of car, seems odd they mention damage if it is not visable, Cat C, D? Look on autotrader see what similar cars are asking.

It has been damaged, so naturally there will be a bit off of the price. If you go see it and eveyrthing is legit and you aren't attacked by 4 big black men, should be reet.

Multiple insurance losses. That means its been damaged seriously enough to need an insurance payout multiple times.

It might be fixed OK, but unless you're happy to inspect it yourself, that is just a maybe.
