Drug seizure Mercedes on the auction block

Hey y'all. My wife went and saw this car today. She works for the state of NC. This car was seized from a big drug lord here in NC and is going to the auction block.

Can I put a CDI diesel in this??

Here's the link

Go to the bottom of the page and click on the CL 500

That would make someone a sweet ride. Just go though it thoroughly before you start driving to make sure nothing was missed .

A seizure car....if you buy it, fill it up with gas and check to see if the tank holds the FULL amount if it doesn't, your CDI project would probably pay for itself

Check the wheels too. They may be filled up with the "right stuff".

Oh come on people, I'm sure the police would have "fully impounded" on the car before they put it out for auction.

Too many instances where they missed something and a routine traffic stop sends a drug dog in a frenzy and the unknowing owned gets busted under Zero tolerance laws for some roach that fell behind the seat.
