    W210's are awesome. When I was in school, I found one for sale for $700 with broken front spring perch. Got it for $400. I got my dad to weld it up for me, and it lasted me 4 yrs through university.
    Sold it for $1800. Still miss it!

      Getting the headlights clear and shiny again will definitely get the car to pop that much more. It's a nice combo with the black, few strips of chrome running across the body, fish bowl OE blue tint glass showing off the light colored interior, and all fitted to those nice wheels. Very very clean as is. Maybe try out a clear or body color side marker? But I've also always been a fan of amber lighting. I remember not really liking 210s when I was younger when they were new, but they've really aged well and I think they're beautiful now. Enjoy your new daily!
