tune up is basically the same minus a cap and rotor. The wires don't typically get replaced (although some might break depending on the vehicle)- they are about $50 each and with 16 on a V8 that can be costly. 16 spark plugs, fuel and engine air filters ought to do it.

The 220's have airmatic suspension. Look at the tops of the front shocks. If they are still sealed with that epoxy, chances are they're going to leak if they aren't already (look for cracks in the epoxy). MB sells reseal kits, but they are over $100 per side and there is a MB tool to help get the old part out. I may be able to help you out on making your own if the car needs it.

I wouldn't turn the car away. You shouldn't be over your head with it.
