I never realized the older brother was Josh Brolin.

Heard nothing but good things about its engine. It would be the trans that would worry me more because people used to believe in that "Lifetime Fluid" BS. Im not keeping the car though. Its just a stepping stone to a 2005 CL65.

Internally the engines are pretty sound. I have never seen one throw a rod or drop a valve. The only internal issues seem to be the blown out oil,tubes for the lifters but they,are no big deal. The problem is with everything around it and it's electrical components. The MAF sucks, the engine harnesses crack, the EAs go bad and then when you have to replace those you break 400.00 worth of brittle hoses and vacuum lines in the process. It just ends up being more than the car is worth if you keep repairing the minor issues.

Now dont get me wrong, the W210 chassis is the most reliable there is when it comes to Mercedes-Benz but I would never get,a pre face-lift car.

Also, look into the common problems any 65 car has and whats parts cost to repair them. Its not uncommon to have a 10/15k repair bill on an older one like you are wanting. Most common issues will be ABC strut leaks at roughly 1600.00 each for just the part. The pumps are another common issue and about the same price with a ton more labor. They have misfire issues at that age with a coil costing upwards of a grand. Just know what youre getting yourself into first. I know you can do some of the labor yourself but parts alone can get pretty crazy. I say stick with the reliable 55 instead.

And that's why I don't own a German car!
