I bought a damaged Mercedes C63 W204 for my girlfriend site un seen as a project car. We discovered as soon as it was delivered that it seemed to have been in a much worse accident than it looked. The car had been dressed up to fetch more money and i fell for it. BUT HOW MUCH IS THIS GOING TO COST!?

@Toy City I can imagine Mat also has a bill for labour from the guys who stripped it down, planning to jig it straight. At least they were honest about the extent of the damage once they dig further, which is the best way of doing business and so I hope some trade can be put their way by viewers who are doing similar to Mat by buying 'uneconomical to repair' cars.

I've driven quite a few Mercedes over the years, none of them mine fortunately. Have never been that impressed, certainly not worth the money or the adulation they get. Overrated cars. The best one was the Viano, that did impress me and I enjoyed driving it, a very capable people carrier.

As always Mat, honesty from you. Discarding all thoughts of passing it on is totally the correct way to go, ending up with the number one prize...a clear conscience. Have you actually costed the parts value and the exact loss you would make...you might be very surprised. After every down comes an up.....perhaps things will work out for you on this after all. The new year starts here!!! Cheers, Bob

Give hannah the maserati, and tell her you will make it all shiny. All girls love shiny cars 😄

Got to love your honesty about this one mate and admire your ethic to not just try and turn it around and re-sell it. Hope you manage to get some kind of return off it in the future.

I'd be interested in seeing how easy / difficult it is to sell parts and see how close to breaking even you can get!

Matt, firstly “I told you so” ..... 😆 secondly, how about just doing an engine swap in to a Mercedes 190E body? It’s been done before & you already have the engine!

Where has it been done before? I'm on all the 190E groups and never seen anyone do this swap. The only swap I've seen was the 190E body that was mounted to a C63 chassis.

Hi Mat , Thank you. Just watched this follow up post , yes what a crying shame, as you pointed out, your conscience would not allow you to not fix it correctly or pass the problem to someone else. Excellent post.

You have just got yourself another subscriber due to this video. Nice to see someone else with good morals who is honest & has the right attitude. Shame about the C63 but nothing ventured nothing gained. I have just ordered a couple of Jet Tags as I have a money pit in the garage myself. If we didn't fail occasional we would never get anywhere either.

Could they not straighten the car and take a % of when its sold to cover the cost??

probably your best, and most honest video so far Mat... we've seen the pain and you'll learn, as we have. I reckon you can get half back on spares, then a bit of merch you'll be ok. Hannah, on the other hand...a further step away from getting her dream motor--that's a BIG problem!

Find an old vito Mercedes van say from 2000 and stick the engine in that if it still works? Turn it into a fast camper van perhaps.

Love your positivity Matt! As you say can't win them all. Keep up the good work 👍

No worries, Matt. You can make it back either selling it as-is for parts or parting it out. Plus you've had some videos on it already and the knowledge you've gained from the experience.

Your attitude towards this was first class. Many including myself would struggle to see the positives. Fair play to you mate.

Well done mate, honest and kudos for not passing it on to some poor bloke. If you knew the engine was working you could have possible bought a cheap C and turned it to a C6.3 amg.

I've watched many of your videos and this one made me subscribe! Thanks for being honest and admitting what any of us have done or will do when buying anything. At least now you know, and we also know. Keep up the good work!!
