Starting a with W124 TDT at just 36k means you have just got a lifetime car there if you take care of it.

Rubber and seals the biggest problem, age related, agree with that

You can get the VMI Vehicle Master Inquiry and get dealer to translate, I think that will show all work, warranty and not, even roadside assistance, performed by the dealer.

Further, dial 1-800-for Mercedes, will get you a copy of window sticker for it

And write to DB Historical Archives in Stuttgart w/ copy of title, request factory build sheet, "in English"

You really found something to crow about, especially for that price. Would run 3-4 times that on ebay for the mileage. Diesel MB's are HOT now.

You could "flip" this one for a tidy sum
