If everything looks good on it mechanically I will bring it home today. I test drove it yesterday and it drives really nice. Now a couple of my buddies are going to look it over to see if they see anything of concern.

E320 or E350
It would be either a E320 or E430. There weren't any E350s for the W210 chassis.Originally Posted by SkylineG1
Looks like, I'm considering a W210 E55 :D
Baulin!!!
Nice benz, but please make sure you check out that transmission and make sure that it is up to par, and in good running condition. I had a 98, and the tranny went bad in only 90k miles.
Its a 1997 E320, and to make a long story short, I decided to not purchase. Joshua I got a feeling something was wrong with the transmission during the second test drive. The other day when I drove it, it drove nice. Zero squeaks, noises, or anything else. Today's test drive was a bit different. I had to wait for traffic to clear before I could pull out of the lot. When I saw a break in traffic I stepped on the gas. The car felt really sluggish even though the engine was revving. Then the car jerked and took off. Almost like it was out of gear for a second. I did a u turn and parked it back on the lot and told the guy no thanks.

I drove many Mercedes, in older models (like the one you said), thats very normal. You floor the gas pedal, then it takes 3-5 seconds (car moves slowly) until the car takes off fast. Every old mercedes that I drove was like that.

I wasn't flooring it at all. I was just lightly stepping on the gas, but the car wouldn't move. It acted like it was in neutral or park, The out of nowhere it took off. I did not get a good feeling from it.

money pit. plus its got rims.. what are the chances it was driven like an old lady. good call.
we have that car in our family. it has always been pretty reliable but it was bought brand new.
Very true.
That is a deal breaker, I have noticed that MBs from the 90's era have a very vague gearbox. They look nice, but seem cheaply built. Although I am hoping to inherit my Aunt's SL500, even though that wont happen she knows I am the only one besides my brother in the family that would appreciate it:)
very nice!!
