If you have to replace 4 $50 window regulators, a $100 dash, $300 suspension parts, it all adds up. You might as well get one with LOWER MILES
You've never owned any old Euro cars, have you?
Here's how it works, you buy car, spend twice what you could ever dream to get out of it selling, then get bored and get another one, either trading said car out or selling at a loss. It's a hobby, in addition to nifty transportation.
Saying find one with lower miles is kinda silly on 15+ year old Euro car.

On this one, the paint is nice as any twenty-ish year old car, nicer than most. Ditto interior save for one door panal and B pillar cover. No dash cracks. Needs a drivers seat spring. I work at a salvage yard, parts are cheap.
Honestly I wouldn't go looking for a 190 at all, but this one came along, and it has service records like my last 300D did. (read: lots, and lots)

Anyway, pretend it has 150K on it.
*Now* tell me about 190e's.
