Can you show Transportstyrelsen's "Fordonets skulder" (vehicle debt) service, or otherwise confirm there is no outstanding vehicle tax, congestion charge, or parking-fine debt tied to this vehicle? Unpaid vehicle debt transfers to the new owner in Sweden, not the previous one, and can lead to Kronofogden seizing the car.
The ad says 2025 but registry shows 2026 — can you provide the registreringsbevis (registration certificate) and explain which is correct?
Please confirm exact trim/option pack and provide the original spec sheet that proves '250+ SPECIAL EDITION' and the listed equipment.
Has this VIN (W1N9N0CB9TJ189230) had all manufacturer recall campaigns applied? Show Mercedes/VIN recall lookup or service receipts.
Have there been any insurance repairs or accident repairs not reflected in car.info? If yes, provide the repair/insurance documentation.
What warranty remains (manufacturer or dealer extension) and is battery warranty transferable? Provide written confirmation.

Never pay a deposit or the full price before you've seen and test-driven the car in person — be wary of pressure to decide immediately ("today only" pricing), or a seller who avoids meeting or an independent inspection.
Pay by bank transfer or Swish, never cash to someone you haven't met or verified, and complete the registered ownership transfer (ägarbyte) digitally at handover rather than leaving it for later.
Test the battery's state of charge and real-world range during the test drive, and ask the seller for a battery health report if one exists.
Verify VIN on the car matches papers (W1N9N0CB9TJ189230) and registreringsbevis before signing.
Check that odometer reads 4,020 km and matches service/inspection stamps or delivery paperwork.
Confirm DC charging and the 100 kW on-board charger work (test charge where possible) and check charging port condition.
Ask dealer to run official Mercedes recall/VIN check and show proof of any work done.
Inspect tyres for age/cracking and tread — even low-km cars can need replacement due to age.
Test drive to check for unusual noises, brakes feel, suspension and that all listed electronics (MBUX, panoramataklucka, LED) function.
Check that the claimed equipment (e.g. bortval emblem, AMG line, larger media display) matches the car physically and in option stickers.
