GarageScout Take
The Japanese-market base specification gives this W203 a distinctly utilitarian character, while the accompanying Japanese service records add context to its mileage near the low end for this generation.
Strengths
- Japanese-market right-hand-drive specification with metric instrumentation and a Virginia title.
- Build sheet and Japanese service records are included.
- No notable modifications reported.
- Two keys and a first-aid kit accompany the car.
Watch For
- Chips and scratches are present around the exterior.
- The tires carry 2019 date codes.
- Interior touch points and trim panels show wear, and the headliner is sagging.
- The July 2026 oil service and A/C recharge were not documented, and the imported car may not pass emissions testing in some states.
