I'm looking at three different E300's. They are:
'93 with a 2.8,
'90 with a 3.0
'99 with a 3.2 (described as a V6)

They are all 100,000 mile cars, all with dealer-documented service, all selling for close enough to $6,000 so that the price difference isn't a big deal. Any opinions on which of these would be the most reliable, economical, most fuel efficient? I live in an area without a large population of Benz, except for the hippie-driven greasers and the retiree E's that they bought after selling the house in the Boston 'burbs and moving to the backwoods of Maine, where the mechanics know all about Chevy pickups.

The mileage claims from the various owners is interesting. The guy with the 3.0 says it gets 20 on the highway, the 2.8 claims 24, the 3.2 claims 26+. Does this make sense?
Thanks
