An automated assessment based on available data — not a substitute for an independent inspection or professional legal/financial advice.

The ad advertises this car as a C63 AMG (63 S T AMG Speedshift MCT Designo PANO 600HK) but verified registry data shows it is actually a regular C-Class, not a C63 AMG — a significant mismatch that affects both the car's identity and its value.The vehicle's traffic status is 'deregistered' (avställd), meaning it is not currently registered for road use and cannot legally be driven until re-registered.The vehicle has had 10 previous owners, which is a very high number for a 2017 car and suggests possible fleet, rental, or otherwise heavy-turnover use.The vehicle is flagged as an import (importFlag true) with no origin country recorded, and import history confidence is low.Mileage rollback risk is marked 'inconclusive' — there is not enough history data to confirm the odometer reading is trustworthy.No accident/damage history source was available to check for prior collision damage.No market valuation could be produced (no comparable listings and no valuation model data), so the asking price cannot be benchmarked against the market.Usage type (private/company/taxi/rental) is unknown, which matters given the unusually high owner count.Numerous EU Safety Gate recall campaigns exist for this model/year range (steering box bolts, coolant pump, fuel rail, seat-back welding, airbags, etc.) and it is not verified whether this specific car has had these fixes applied.No driving ban is currently active on the vehicle.Purchased from a registered dealer, so konsumentköplagen applies automatically, giving stronger legal protection than a private sale, including a 6-month presumption that defects were pre-existing.Annual average mileage (roughly 11,944 km/year) is close to typical usage range for this age of car, with no history data indicating manipulation.

Ad vs. registry data check

3 fields didn't match between the ad and verified registry data — see details below.

  • Model: the listing says "C63", but the vehicle registry shows "C-Class" (significant difference)
  • Trim/spec: the listing says "63 S T AMG Speedshift MCT Designo PANO 600HK SE SPEC", but the vehicle registry shows "Log in" (minor difference)
  • Fuel type: the listing says "Bensin", but the vehicle registry shows "Petrol" (minor difference)

🛣️ Mileage analysis

The car shows 107,500 km at an average of about 11,944 km/year, which sits just below the typical 12,000–18,000 km/year range for this type of vehicle but is not itself unusual. However, no odometer history records were available, so the rollback risk assessment is inconclusive — this figure has not been cross-checked against past readings.

Confidence: Low

💰 Market valuation

Asking 494,900 SEK — fair range 494,900–494,900 SEK (Fair price, from 0 comparables).

Not enough genuine comparable listings were found on Blocket, and biluppgifter.se had no valuation estimate for this vehicle either, so no fair market value range could be estimated.

📢 Official recalls (EU Safety Gate)

16 of undefined total recall campaigns issued for this model apply to this vehicle's specific model year — not the model's entire recall history.

This shows official recall campaigns issued for this model and year — whether THIS specific car has already had the fix applied isn't verified here. Check the chassis/VIN with the manufacturer's own recall lookup tool to confirm.

Expect roughly 13,252 SEK/year in fuel costs, but note this assumes 10,000 km/year of driving rather than this specific car's own recorded annual mileage (closer to 11,944 km/year), so actual fuel spend would likely be somewhat higher. Estimated annual maintenance is around 7,400 SEK. Road tax data was not available for this vehicle. Insurance is not a quote from a specific insurer but a general estimate for a car of this age, value, and segment in Sweden, roughly 7,500–13,500 SEK/year depending on the insurer, coverage level, and driver profile.

Recommendation

Significant mismatches and deregistered status make this a high-risk purchase — avoid until fully clarified

This listing advertises the car as a C63 AMG with a 600HK Designo PANO spec, but verified registry data confirms it is actually a standard C-Class — a major discrepancy that alone should give any buyer serious pause about the accuracy of the rest of the ad. On top of that, the car is currently deregistered (avställd) and cannot legally be driven, it has passed through 10 previous owners, is flagged as an import with no verifiable origin, and its mileage rollback risk could not be confirmed due to lack of history data. No damage history or market valuation data could be obtained either, leaving too many open questions to assess whether the asking price of 494,900 SEK is fair. While buying from a registered dealer does provide konsumentköplagen protections, the scale of unresolved discrepancies here goes well beyond what legal protection alone can offset — this car should be avoided unless the seller can fully resolve the model/trim mismatch and provide clear documentation on ownership history, import origin, and current registration status.

✅ Before you buy

❓ Questions to ask the seller

  • The ad describes this car as a C63 AMG with 600HK, Designo, and a panoramic roof, but registry data shows it is a standard C-Class — can you explain this discrepancy and provide documentation matching the vehicle's true specification?
  • Why is the vehicle currently showing as deregistered (avställd) in the registry, and what needs to happen before it can be legally driven again?
  • This car has had 10 previous owners — can you share the ownership history and explain what kind of use (private, company, rental, etc.) it had?
  • Since the car is flagged as an import, can you confirm which country it was imported from and provide the import/customs documentation?
  • Has this specific vehicle (by VIN/chassis number) had the recall fixes applied for the steering box bolts, coolant pump, fuel rail, and seat-back welding issues listed under EU Safety Gate for this model and year range?

🔍 Inspection checklist

  • Verify the actual trim/model against the chassis plate, VIN, and factory options — do not rely on the ad description, since it does not match verified registry data.
  • Check the current registration status in person and confirm what steps are needed to re-register (avställd) the car for road use.
  • Ask for full service history and documentation covering all 10 previous owners, if available.
  • Have a Mercedes-Benz dealer check the VIN against the manufacturer's recall database to confirm which of the listed recall campaigns (steering box, coolant pump, fuel rail, seat-back welding, airbags) have been completed.
  • Inspect for any signs of prior accident repair or bodywork, since no damage history source was available to check this independently.
  • Confirm the import origin and paperwork, including any customs and registration history in Sweden.

What this report doesn't cover

  • No accident, insurance, or police-record source is checked — the damage assessment below reflects that gap, not a clean history.
  • No community-sourced known-issues research is available for this model yet — the known-issues section is not populated.
  • Recall campaigns are matched by model and year only — whether this specific chassis has already had the fix applied is not verified.
  • Road tax could not be read from either registry source for this vehicle — the ownership cost total below excludes it and is likely an underestimate.
  • No damage/accident history source was available, so prior collision damage cannot be ruled out.
  • No market valuation data (comparable listings or valuation model) was available to benchmark the asking price.
  • Mileage rollback risk could not be conclusively assessed due to lack of odometer history records.
  • Usage type (private, company, rental, taxi) is unknown despite the high owner count.
  • It is not verified whether this specific vehicle has had the listed recall campaigns' fixes applied — only that these campaigns exist for the model/year range.
  • Road tax figure was not available for this vehicle.
