Vehicle Detail
1998 E320 Mercedes Wagon. High miles. This car has been our daily driver for the past two years and we are now selling it. We have put a lot of money into the car and have decided we do not want to put anymore in because it involves a 12 mile hike each way to the dealers. First off it is in reasonable condition. The motor is fine, the interior is good and the electrics all work. It has four new tires, new exhaust, complete new aircon, new keyless entry system including keys and computer (2K+). It has been well maintained but it time to go for something smaller. It does need work. One of the brake sensors for the antiskid braking needs to be replaced for the antiskid braking to work properly, until this is done the car will not change out of first - this is a built in safety feature (one I could have lived without) the dealer estimates it will cost about $200 to replace, one front light needs the bulb holder reattached (it shows dimmer than the other headlight) a rear light also needs work (contacts cleaned). The SRS light is on because the sensor that detects if someone is sitting in the passenger seat is broken and would cost $800 to replace, the dealers say they did not believe this would affect the deployment of the passenger airbag in an accident. There is some rust coming through and the panels have minor dings. It was hit from behind and the bumper was replaced. Before we bought it the tailgate was damaged. It is still bent but functions fine. This is a car that is showing its age. We cannot be bothered going through the hassle of fixing a bunch of minor things that would take time and cost us money we want to put towards a new car This car would be good for parts or if you are handy and could do the work yourself would be a useful runabout.
