2001 MERCEDES E320 4MATIC - No Reserve!
Black exterior / tan interior
Good car for a MB fan and enthusiast or person that is mechanically inclined and has knowledge and love for Mercedes to fix.
What I can tell you is that this was my daily driver and I enjoyed this car very much. It has treated me well. It is super comfortable and a very pleasant driving experience. The 4 wheel drive system was great for the bad weather months and I have never gotten stuck. I think it came with the:
E3 Value Package - includes: rain sensor, glass sunroof, Bose(r) premium sound system $ 1,610
K2a integrated TIMEPORT phone with voice control, CD changer $ 2,190 (not included when I got the car, but all the wiring is still there for easy hook up.)
What the car needs is the transmission to be repaired or rebuilt. Maybe you have access to put a used one in. It just failed recently and slips out of gear. Brought it to my mechanic and they reconfirmed it. However, I have completed some research and this transmission is fairly common. It was built when Chrysler and Mercedes merged and became Daimler Chrysler and shares this same 5 speed automatic called the "722.6" with the Dodge Magnum and the Chrysler 300. Also, some Jeep, Porsche, and Jaguar, and other products. The engine runs very smooth and still has all of its get-up and go life to it. It may be high miles but these engines were built to last even longer than this car's mileage. I've heard some of these engines going into the 400,000 mile mark?!
Now here are the "goods" and the "bads" to my knowledge:
Inspection sticker good till September of next year, 2018
New dive shaft installed
New starter (Bosh) good quality
New brake pads (all 4 wheels front and back)
Light bulbs on all front and back lights
New power steering rack installed
New cabin air filters - All 4
New engine air filter
Engine running strong
Interior is in good condition
Radio is a Bose 7 speaker system that still sounds good
Leather still soft
Wood trim in shiny shape not broken
Even the cup holder that is famous for breaking still works
The electronic programmable personal memory seat position buttons and function works
Exterior and interior lights function
Signals work
A/C and heat work
Windshield wipers work
Good All-Season tires
All electronics, buttons, and switches work
Will need a new ignition key switch soon. Intermittent random times of a/c and turn signals will stop but if you jiggle the ignition key they turn back on.
Transmission just blew
Body in decent shape (some small bubbling along seems)
Some body panel recently started showing rust bubbles. No holes ye, can be repaired and contained if done soon.
One panel on driver's side door was repaired.
Sunroof stopped working. Not sure if switch, fuse or what?
