My only concern would be the no records. You might be able to find the dealer records somehow. Mercedes dealers are usually pretty good about this. There have been other threads on this subject. Obviously it depends a lot on how it was cared for. Also the area it was driven in. And was it in a flood? Hopefully not... Mine is near 200K and no major issues yet. Still burns no oil. That price seems good as long as there isn't some hidden "surprise". Original owner cars are always preferable of course, or second owner with records.
