OK -- here goes. I'm seriously considering a 2000-2002 E320 for my wife. For the record, I'm a total DIYer -- pulled the W124 cylinder head, brakes, struts, water pump (woof), starter, headrests, you name it , I've done it.

Here in the Dallas / Fort Worth area I'm seeing used W210s in the '00-02 range selling for at or under $10k (under 100k on the odometer).

Am I getting in over my head? Thoughts? Warnings? Recommendations?

Thanks, guys. Chris in DFW
