I bought a 1987 300E 10 months ago. It had no records except for a rebuilt transmission. The car has run fine so far and cruises at 80 mph smooth so far. I have put about 10,000 miles on the car. The car has over a 150,000 miles on it. My question is have I just been lucky or are these cars pretty bulletproof?
This is my first Benz. I generally have a good feeling when I buy cars about their reliability from the test drive. Should I expect big expenses coming up? OR should it be ok with the oil changes and general maintenance? I know these questions may be a bit general but any feedback is appreciated.
