I looked for months before I found a nice MB. Have patience, and save up your dollars in the meantime. To quote what I read on this forum a number of months back, "A cheap Mercedes is an expensive Mercedes."

I looked for one where the owner was able to document everything that had been replaced on the car. When the seller starts using language like: "I think" or "it seems like" or "I was told" or "It appears", That is an immediate red flag and I move on. And just why does this seller of the BMW think it will make an excellent WVO car. Because it is cheap? Sounds like BS to me.
