Normally these cars increase in value over time but in this example the beauty has faded quite a bit and hence the lower selling price. As I stated before, you should see the car for yourself because I cannot list all the dings and dents.

Here is how I would describe the car to the best of my abilities.

Good:

- Only 108K miles

- Rare MB color combination (Caledonia Green / Parchment)

- Strong engine

- Engine starts with no problems

- Smooth shifting transmission

- Drives good

- Glass is good. Windshield was recently replaced

- From far away the car looks decent

Not so good:

- The battery light is on (The car drives fine despite the light. I don't know what is wrong with it)

- After washing the car with a hose or if it rains hard, there will be water in the foot area

- The car is equipped with a sunroof but because of the leak it was sealed off. Unfortunately this did not fix the leak :-(

- The car smells (on wet days more than on dry days)

- The car loses some drops of oil after driving

- Various rust spots. Bubbling paint

- Lose moldings

- The seat belt light comes on intermittently

- The passenger side front and rear windows don't work

- A/C not working

- Heat not working

- Turn signal works only manually (relay needs replacement)

- The brakes squeal occasionally and therefore you should have the brakes inspected

Bad:

- Front tires are worn and must be replaced

The car is sold as-is with no warranties or guarantees of any kind. Please contact me to make an appointment for a visual inspection or a test drive.
