FS 1995 320 E Wagon
FS 320E Wagon 1995....Jackson, Tn. $1750.
Has some "issues", hence the price. 140,000 mi. Driver's window needs regulator as gear is partially stripped. Rear left window switch/motor ?. Reverse gear comes and goes. Still has original first aid kit, minus a couple of band-aids. Having problems scaling photos, will e-mail per request. White w/ tan interior. |

Can you comment on the following:
Head gasket (replaced or original?) Condition of wiring harness Does the AC work? Overall general condition of body and interior Thank you much! |

Body and interior are in really nice shape. I have been repeatedly asked about the harness and head gasket. We've owned it since early 2006 and have not had to do anything to either. Is there something I should be checking ?

You can easily tell if the harness is original by pulling back some of the insulation and check for any degradation. You can also pull the battery, and behind it would be some of the wiring harness with a tag attached. One side will be the design date, the other manufacture date. If the manufacture date is newer than your car, then you have the replacement harness. Head gaskets often start as very small external oil leaks. If your car has some drippage from the back of the engine or very front, there's a good chance the HG is failing. No educated buyer is going to step up to the plate without knowing these crucial facts.

We just checked...they appear to be the originals. If any one wants to make us an offer, please do. The interior/exterior is good...
Thank you for your help. |

Paul - I am not able to get a VMI as apparently MBZ has a policy of not giving that out anymore unless you are the owner. Bummer, would have been nice to trace things out a little since you have no history of many of the 'big items' that eventually need doing on these cars (head gasket, evaporator, wiring harnesses, trans).
My assumption is they are all original, and with the trans reverse "coming and going", its rebuild time. So figure 1.5-3K on that job depending on who does it. then the other 3 jobs are each probably 1-1.5K. One of these with low mileage and those items done are fetching about 5-7K depending on condition and history. therein lies the problem with determing worth. If all need doing, that's about 4-7K. |

I don't think I am up for making such a long trip for a car that has not had these items addressed, unless it was a very low price. Not that your price is unreasonable. Good luck with the sale |

Hey now...
If a M119 would fit, I'd rather do that!!! And I mean "fit" without beating on the sheet metal with a sledge hammer.

Assuming wagon and sedan front fenders are the same, I believe the E500 fenders could be swapped over, as that had the V8 in it with the flared fenders.
