On this car, the ashtray looks like its been used, and with no records, it's Russian Roulette. I would run a check through an interested MB Dealer, and see what the factory records are on the car. It has a Michelin Spare in the trunk, may have never been n the ground, but the dealer say's the car has like new Continentals on it. At 29,000 miles, too soon for tires, unless it was driven fast and hard. Curious to see what it sells for. If I was closer, I would check it out, just out of curiosity. I think I talked myself out of it again.
