2005 E320CDI 199,000 miles purchased March 2015 for $8000. 1 owner car with Designo Expresso package, HK stereo, xenon lights, panoramic roof, keyless go, navigation, and heated seats. It came with a full service history from day 1. Repairs include:
Never towed in. Other than normal maintenance, some fuel leaks, quite a few suspension parts replaced, and tons of repair attempts on the troublesome keyless go system, the only surprise repair was an EGR & Turbo replacement at 60k. This stemmed from a sluggish engine problem that the techs had a difficult time diagnosing. Thankfully the original owner purchased an extended warranty covering the car to 100k. Nice to see records of injector seals, lower ball joints, glow plugs, transmission service at 100k, and battery control module replacement. Other than the normal service campaigns, nothing has been done to the SBC system.
I have bought and sold 4 other 2005-2006 CDIs in the past and several other W211s. I used to own a used car lot specializing in old Mercedes and got to know them pretty well.
