I will agree that styling has kept me away from the W210, that and rust issues, but otherwise I feel that these cars are excellent drivers and Mercedes did a fine job. The 606 turbo and overdrive alone are great improvements.

I had a very good friend who owned a '99 from almost new, black over black leather and well optioned also, never let him down and was a joy to drive and ride in.

Congrats on the return of this car, given the history, colors, and options I'd be very tempted to own this one also.
