Or for subsequent owners.
Friends had an '02 E430 4Matic.
Beautiful car - silver with a dark blue interior.
They bought it used for more than $50K and I think, only got something like $15K out of it when they sold it a few years later. Not sure of exact dates but know it was not new when they got it and they have been out of it for a while.

It would be fun to compare the MSRP with the current blue book prices for
MBs from the mid to late 90s.  IIRC the MSRP on a 199x 400E was $70,000 or
thereabouts.  Depreciation is spectacular, but not in a good way for
original owners....

Gotta be an S420 if it's a 97.  There was a 400SEL, however.

That's a bit cheap for a 97 with those kinds of miles.  I would expect
issues or cosmetic problems at that price.

The W140 chassis is far better from 1997-on, so as far as the year is
concerned it's a good one.

I am currently looking for a 300SEL or S320 in a W140 chassis. If anyone
hears of a deal like this for one I would appreciate letting me know.

Any thoughts or warnings on 1997 SEL 420?  140,000 miles, no rust I can
see on cursory inspection. Paint is okay, interior pretty good, blue.
$2700.00
Runs good.
Is that a fair price
Thanks
