I have the opportunity to purchase a 1998 E300TD in perfect condition. The car only has 31,000 miles. I have seen the original bill of sale as well as a CarFAX report. The report was clean.

I currently own two 2001 VW Jetta TDI's. I love these cars and am sold on the diesel concept. I have been a forum member of Fred's TDI page for years.

What are some questions I should be asking of the seller and are there certain things to be looking for or wary of in this particular model?

Any thoughts or comments will be appreciated.
