E320 wagon

Post by fritz »

Saw this E320 for sale in Adelaide:
Am actually looking for a W124 E220 or E280 wagon but am wondering about this car

2 owners but a lot of KM'S on the clock.
Is it worth considering or asking for too many problems?

Cheers
Fritz.

My wifes 2000 E320 wagon has 220000 ish kms on the clock and is fine with the exception of an oil leak from the rear main oil seal. These are great cars if serviced by a workshop that understands them and keeps up with the maintainance (things like coolant and brake fluid changes), a good service history is not just a pile of reciepts for a lube servide. 12k sounds OK to me.

Hi Fritz,

I bought an E320 wagon in 1/1999 and drove it 'til 9/2002 for 150000 kms. Great car ... was replaced by one of the last built S210. Check the rust (also garage cars have it): top of all doors and the trunk door (incl. roof). Another thing is the instrument panel (hope, it's the right word) -> pixel errors (temperature display, gears, kms). Mine was changed in 2001; later models after facelift 6/99 are better.

Good luck
Thomas

Edith: sorry, I was wrong; the pixel problem was after facelift 6/99 ... here mine from 2006:
