Anyone have a CLEAN 95 E300 For Sale?

HELLO,

Curious if anyone has a clean 95 E300 for sale? I would like to find one with 150,000 or less miles that has a documented maintenance history.

Anyone?

Thanks!

I don't have one but I can tell you it will be difficult.
Folks rack up the miles with Diesels typically so keep your mileage expectations realistic.
You want something that was driven highway a lot. Diesels need to be driven and when they sit just like any car everything rots.

Good luck with your search. I hope something turns up. Don't forget the Pre-Purchase Inspection.

mileage much less of a consideration than maintenance

I've got a 92 or 93 300D 2.5 turbo available for $3k. Starts, drives and runs out great but it does need a little work, mainly a/c repair and serpentine belt tensioner replacement. It is showing under 200k miles.

That's a beauty! I am tempted to buy it so I could have three black 95 e300d's!

"promising" / $10K - Ha-ha!
For that kind of money, you can buy two of them with not many more miles on them. No records or Carfax either on the car.

Hmm- any reason you're looking at $10K 95 e300s and not 96 or other w210 e300s? Just curious...
