    Service it, fix the faults and refurbish the wheels. Don't tart it up and you should get a good return on it and appeal to a larger market

    • @joshmerrick4716
      @joshmerrick4716 Před měsícem +18

      Totally agree. It’s not the sort of car to add spacers and modifications to. You really limit the sort of person this kind of car will appeal to by doing bits like that to it.
      Service it, sort the wheels, buff the headlights, and maybe get it professionally detailed. Job done

    Diesel Mercs are renowned for playing up if used on short journeys, I have bought a few Gems where the owner thought it would cost a lot of money to repair, when all it needed was a good run and clear out. On the OM642 engine if it happens after 30 miles or so check the O rings on the turbo that has been replaced if the bloke didn't service the vehicle he may of skimped on replacing the O rings, you will see where the oil has seeped and the pressure escapes on the boost pipe from the intercooler to the Turbo, its usually the cold side where the pipe or ring crack or break.

    Its nearly always the intercooler endcaps cracking on these mercs that causes the underboost limp mode issues , these and the w203/204s were notorious for it , iv had 4 c320s , every one of them suffers with it at some point ,electronic actuator/boost solenoid for the turbo sits below the cam cover at teh drivers side, leaky cam cover drips onto it and destroys it , also causing sporadic limp mode.

    Don't bother modifying this one, not the right market for it.
