Looks just like my E250. It's a 4 matic with blind spot assist and keyless
go, which are all necessities.Deduct for a $700 "A" servicing and another
$750 for a set of new Vredensteins. If it passes inspection then that's a
reasonable asking price, net those items. These are wonderful cars with
More than I'd spend on a car but looks nice, low miles.

It’s actually not bad, considering. The interior wear is typical for this model
due to the poor approach to coloring plastic trim pieces.

(school's new) diesels got 6MPG, vs the older gassers that got 3MPG.
