PPI and Test Driver wanted -- Atlanta
I'm looking for someone to test drive a 1998 E300 turbodiesel for me. Car is located in Stone Mountain area.

Anyone interested in eyeballing this car for me before I close on it?

Thanks,

M.B.DOC is 5 or 10 miles form there.

Not sure if there is a MB mech that has more credentials than him.
