Description

Mercedes-Benz E-Class.
This is a 1995 E320 wagon with approximately 179,000 miles on the odometer.
The following is my impression of the condition of the car.
The good:
* Suspension feels totally sorted, giving a smooth Mercedes ride.
* Good brakes.
* Repaint about 2 years ago in factory white.
* No visible surface rust.
* Power windows work.
* Power sunroof works in both directions (tilt/slide).
* Power locks work.
* Lights and blinkers work.
* Cruise control works, but the stalk may occasionally become loose. Needs to be pressed back in.
* Engine makes good power across rev band.
* Two new rear tires.
* Has deployable rear facing child seats in the trunk area.
The bad:
* Climate control blower does not work.
* Leather at steering wheel is degraded (see pics).
* Rear hatch (tailgate) struts are weak.
* ABS, Brake, ASR lights all on. Clearly something up in the traction control/abs system.
* Slight engine shake at idle.
* Slight accessory belt whine from front of engine.
* Steering is firm in general but there's a weird loose feel as you turn the wheel.
* Power seats work but hesitate. Need assistance to get them to move sometimes.
* Might need a new radio/head unit. Don't know if this one still works.
* Last oil change date unknown, however likely within 18 mos.

So currently, as you can see, there are numerous issues that are not cheap fixes at a mechanic, and perhaps not even if you work on cars yourself. Car is drivable and comfortable around town and on highway at highway speeds but I would consider another means for longer trips at this time based on brake and engine issues noted above, and until it's been looked at by a mechanic.
For history, this car used to be mine but I gifted it to my mother a few years ago. It's been a great car for my family. I am now selling it for her, and unfortunately have only had about 30 minutes behind the wheel since she moved back.
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask. The car is with me in Providence, RI along with clear title.
