Description
BEING SOLD AS-IS, please no haggling over work that needs to be done, this is primarily a parts car.This 300D could use some cosmetic work, but runs well. Unfortunately, the crankshaft pulley broke and needs a replacement (approx $300 in parts and labor). The car is otherwisemechanically sound, can cruise at highway speeds and was (on 12/5/17) checked out by a Mercedes specialist who checked it out. No limit, see details below.
Pluses
- Already mechanically sound
- Runs reliably; no trouble starting the engine
- Turbo works
- Clean interior and back seats
- Recent oil change on December 5, included inspection
- Brand new battery bought in January w/ receipt
- Electronics work, though aftermarket stereo has issues
Minuses
- Approx 250,000 miles + odometer stopped (though these cars are bulletproof and regularly reach 1,000,000 miles)
- Front seats need replacement or covers
- Brakes will need replacement in 5,000 miles ($50)
- Rear axle will (eventually) need a replacement
- Small cosmetic things: Not original paint (minor chip on the driver side, see pictures), window liners are a bit ragged, vanity mirrors need to be replaced
- AC doesn't work; heat does
- Rear left window won't go 100% up, it leaves a small crack open
- Small dent on the front left fender, just behind the headlights
