I bought this Mercedes for my Mom in 1998. It was mint. She passed-away three years ago and the vehicle has been garaged off the road since and for all its life. Last county registration was 2016. It has a near perfect body and not one dent or ding! It is a great color combo, copper metallic brown with a palimino leather interior. It has an Alpine sound system and Focal high performance speakers... best of the best. It has 2003 Mercedes Benz C class 16" wheels and is about the best looking 300e you ever saw. Springs and suspension and front end all replaced OEM new! AC compressor is newer as is the AC system.The muffler system is brand new Eberspacher OE.... That alone was $1k. The radiator is new too! I prefer dealing with people verbally so send me an email to- bk at realtycouncil dot com. This way I can tell you more about this Mercedes... it's a beauty... the best looking 300 E 3.0 you will ever see. Also, it always had oil changes at 2500 miles using Rotella. This is the M103 12 valve... not the problematic M104 24 valve. It has a perfect emissions report and burns zero oil. She is tight but needs a few things. This car cost $46,000 new. It is the last of the hand made Mercedes... plus it has awesome looking OE Mercedes class 16' wheels. This Benz handles really well, much better than a std 300e and it still nice/smooth riding! All wheel bearings tight as is the whole front-end.. Shocks are Bilstein. Great suspension and good Michelin MXV4 tires. We are the second owners. Car has never been in an accident other than my mom did something in 1999 the size of a quarter right rear near wheel well. I had it repaired and is not detectable. Car never in a crash or anything like that, not even a door ding. We are talking a straight body and that is near impossible to find, certainly not at this price. Paint glows!
