Might be the new owner of a 98 E300!

I am waiting to hear back from the dealer, but it looks pretty good.

98 E300, 145k miles, black/black leather, heated seats, looks MINT

Get the Glow Plugs out of there first. Mine have been a ROYAL PITA.

Other than that, I love ours. Looks exactly like yours.

turbodiesel,

Way to build up your MB Diesel fleet. I have been very satisfied with mine overall. Great mileage, quick, quiet and smooth. And to date, absolutely solid reliable. Have had some component failures but never been stuck by the side of the road. Great car, enjoy it! Jim

Looks like I just found my "parts store". Where do you live? I need to "borrow" a seat (seat back heater is not working) and a head.

Nice, I really like the W210's. When are you going to over 200k on it?

Same year, color combo, and almost the same mileage as W140 S600's. Black on black is sharp except it gets real hot in the summer.
