The car has 278,000 miles and runs strong. The body is solid with a few small rust spots. Paint is shiny however there are a couple spots where the clear coat is peeling (shown in picture). There are only a couple of small door dings. Drives straight and smooth down the road. I would say ball joints and tie rod ends should be done soon as there is more play in the steering than my other Benz but still nice to drive. The interior is nice overall but there is a small wear mark in the drivers seat. The rear seat has one small tear and the seam is separated on the top of the rear seat by the window. Dash has normal MB cracks. Engine: Starts very quickly. The fuel injector nozzles have been replaced in the past 30,000 miles. Valves were adjusted about 10,000 miles ago. Burns about a quart of oil every 1000 miles. Exhaust system will probably need to be replaced in the next year. Transmission: shifts solid although may need a vacuum adjustment to soften it up. Drive shaft should probably have new flex discs installed. I have one new one but haven't installed it. Other new parts included. Accessories: All power windows work. Sunroof opens as it should. AC does not work. Other details: Park brake shoes are not installed. Car was my daily driver until 3 months ago when I purchased a new one. Brakes rotors and pads are all new withing last 8,000 miles. This car was recently listed with a vegetable oil kit however the kit was removed for another vehicle due to reserve not being met.
