You are wrong sir. I used to think your way until I imported a few cars from Europe. Assuming it was his personal car (meaning he didn't pay for it), he will need nothing less than 650k to bring it in. Add delivery to Uyo which will cost him at least 50k except he is not going to pay the driver also. Those army checkpoints will not collect 500 naira from you. A '99 C Class this clean costs upward of 1000 euros. Remember to use September exchange rate. Pls finish the maths and mark it up with 20-25% for his effort.

Sincerely speaking today's fair price will be around N1.4m and that is being very modest.

All said, the buyer still remain the king anyway.

Thanks Bro. You know what your talking about. Cheers.

Thanks for the heads up. But is 25% really a fair mark up? ~400k profit on a 99 model.

As at July this year I would think a dealer that sells this car for anything more than N1.2m is a cheat. But now I know better.

To break these things down is easy:
Buying + towing +shipping estimated @ 1500 -1600 euros = 670k (this depends on the actual cost, country and distance to the port anyway)
Clearing is around 380k
Delivery to uyo is 50k
Total is not below N1.1m
If he adds 25%, selling price is between N1.35 and N1.4m sales commission inclusive if he has to settle any middleman.

Caveat: I have no relationship with the seller and my estimates should not be used as basis for any transaction or negotiation.

Thanks everyone.

Core8ride:

1999.

This is and can NEVER be a 1999 w202 c220.
Evident from the interior (especially the hazard light knob and gear) and exterior, this is a 1996 (max) c220.
The facelift of this model is from 1998 - 2000 (2001 for only wagons).
Pre-facelift is between 1993-1997, and the c220 model was from 1994 - 1996.
If you doubt me, snap the VIN and let's run a check.
Happy sales though.
