I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: The W210s are amazingly dull, boring cars. However, they are very reliable and inexpensive to own and operate. They’re a great “gas and go” car, period. Like the Mercedes version of a Camry. -D > On Jul 29, 2019, at 12:10 PM, Floyd Thursby via

I was starting to like the $500E300 more than I thought I would, ran well, handled well, plenty of power, fairly comfortable.  I wish it hadn't encountered the tree but sh*t happens.  But it proved itself so no complaints there. --FT On 7/29/19 11:51 AM, Jaime Kopchinski via Mercedes wrote:

Yeah, makes sense Dan. I've never had much experience with the early cars, but I can see how they're very different from the later ones. I don't care much for how they ride or the interior. Add in the rust, and the spring perches giving out too. Jaime On Mon, Jul 29, 2019 at 11:33 AM Dan---

Jaime, In my research and when looking at the W210s, whether gas or diesel, I found that MY 96 and 97 cars were sort of one-offs in a lot of ways. Unless it’s a stupid good deal, I would probably pass. I have searches set up for W210 diesels here and I purposely leave those years out. -D >

Indeed could be a good deal. There are lots of folks around here that buy nice cars then never use them, or only go out in nice weather. They're the same type of people that aren't good with computers. I bought my 7 year old wagon with 18k miles from such a person. Jaime On Sun, Mar 17, 2019

Maybe. With no pictures, it probably won't be sold soon. I'm watching a few online auctions. I'll let you know after they end. My primary concern would be rust. The more I drive a W210, the more I realize they are an underappreciated gem. For what a clean 123 sedan is going for, I can pick up
