Cheap=Pretty sweet.

But if you have to pay a lot for it then no it probably isn't worth it.

It looks nice but I bet you it needs something major that will cost big bucks.

in that case...i think that 4000 might be too much for that car.  but if it is in as good of a condition as you claim...then it may very well be worth that.  were I you...I might consider other option (if you haven't already).

Hm... 4000, its just the right price. But for me, i would still look for a cheaper car in better condition.  Lol, thats probably cuz i only have 2000 right now, i still have to make another few g's before i can by my car.

Errrr, a bit old, wow 20 years. I probably would not get it for my first car. Besides the fact it's so old, Mercedes are nice cars but even they'll have a bunch of problems after that many years. Also, the mileage you'll get on that can't be good.

Mercedes do tend to run pretty well and thats a pretty good price. Make sure everything is in top notch condition, and just be prepared to pay like double when getting it repaired. And have a good time with your Rear-Wheel Drive car. They own the crap out of all Front-Wheel Drive cars. IMO, they give a nice ride, corner better and are more fun in sports cars!

My uncle's Mercedes is still doing pretty well after 12 years.

Looks nicer than my first car: a 1983 Toyota Tercel...didn't look much, but it got me from A to B and that's all that mattered. Bought it for $500 sold it nearly three years later for $300.
