2008 Chrysler 300C 5.7 Hemi V8

Background:
The Chrysler 300C was developed as a bold statement of American luxury and performance, blending retro styling with modern engineering. At its heart, the 5.7-litre HEMI V8 engine delivers effortless torque and a distinctly muscular character, while the long, low silhouette and rear-wheel drive layout give it a confident presence on the road. Built at the Magna Steyr plant in Austria, the 300C combined robust European construction with Chrysler’s signature design cues and became a distinctive alternative to mainstream executive saloons.

The Car:
First registered in March 2008 and manufactured at the Magna Steyr facility in Sweden, this example was supplied new to Japan and remained there until its recent import to the UK. Having lived exclusively in Japan, the car has never been driven on salted roads and is entirely corrosion-free as a result. The mileage of just 40,073 miles is supported by a complete and documented service history from new, including stamped records, shaken inspection sheets, and recent UK invoices.

Now fully converted to UK-specification, the car is supplied with a full UK V5C, MPH clocks, UK SatNav, full size number plates and a current MOT. Presented in Brilliant Silver Metallic with a grey leather interior, it remains in highly original condition throughout, with factory HID headlights, dual-zone climate control, heated electric front seats and touchscreen infotainment system. It also retains its original Chrysler key and valet key.

Two sets of wheels are included – the factory-correct 18" alloys with V8 specification tyres and a set of 20" alloy wheels as currently fitted.

• Apr 2023 – Two front brake callipers replaced
• Apr 2023 – Battery replaced

All mechanical systems passed the Japanese shaken inspection with no advisories, and the car continues to present in excellent mechanical and cosmetic condition. The underside and mechanical components are clean and free from oxidation, while the interior shows minimal wear, with switchgear and trim in factory condition.

Offered with a comprehensive history file, full size spare wheel and tools, Japanese service booklet, and original Chrysler owner’s pack.
