The seller offers for sale a 1998 Mercedes-Benz AMG S202 C43 Väth V47, a one-of-a-kind station wagon with a unique tuning history. Originally ordered as a showroom model at a Mercedes-Benz dealership in Bonn, the car was later sold to its first private owner, who immediately sent it to Väth for extensive engine tuning. The engine displacement was increased to 4.7L, with power upgraded to 380 hp, and additional modifications were carried out at Brabus. These enhancements are documented and reflected in the car’s official registration papers.

To match its enhanced performance, the car features a Brembo braking system with 4-piston calipers, steel flex lines, and larger discs, complemented by ATS wheels. The car accelerates from 0-100 km/h in 5.7 seconds and reaches a top speed of 282 km/h (GPS verified). It was showcased at the 2023 Essen Motor Show, further cementing its status as a collector’s item.

The bodywork is in good condition, with minor imperfections such as light rust spots on the trunk lid and left fender. The original paint remains intact, showing slight cracks visible under certain lighting, reflecting its unaltered authenticity. The interior is in good condition, boasting luxurious leather seats, a carbon package, and a Harman Kardon audio system.

As a testament to Mercedes-Benz and AMG engineering, the S202 C43 Väth V47 is a blend of power and practicality. Produced during AMG’s integration into Mercedes-Benz, the C43 was among the first models fully developed under AMG’s ownership. The Väth-tuned variant represents an even rarer piece of automotive history, blending exclusive performance upgrades with the versatility of a station wagon.

The German TÜV expired in 2021, but the seller states that reinspection can be easily arranged. These details aside, this vehicle is a standout example of a tuned AMG classic.
