Hello All, i am new to this forum and i will purchace a c class diesel in the near future. some one approched me with the chance of a direct swap, my car for his 2001 c class coupe fsh and with 139000 on the clock. i understand these engines are chain driven (correct) ? and should this mileage make me look elsewhere ? you thoughts would be greatly apperciated. oh an the lacker is peeling on the bonnet (resprayed ?) and just had a new intercooler and rear shocks. many thanks

 

yes my thoughts, but swap aside. mileage on the car. should it be an issue ?
