hey folks
looking at a 2009 model, 111k mileage, 3L V6 DOHC w/dual fuel (I don’t know what that means myself, just stating). It’s going for 9k out the door with 3 months warranty. Used car dealer, very good reputation online. Clean Carfax - 2 owners, no accidents however Carfax lists very minimal service history and seller has no records for me. It has P1 package including upgraded audio system, upgraded navigation monitor, heated seats, electronic adjusted seats and steering wheel...is this a good buy? Looking to finance it over 2/3 years with a reasonable deposit. Just hoping it won’t cost a bomb to maintain. My father-in-law is willing to teach me a lot of DIY, or at least as much as would help me with this car, and I have a mechanical-engineer friend who could maybe help sometimes.

Hello and welcome to the forum! The best thing that you can do is to have a PPI (pre-purchase inspection) done by an indy MB shop. This will give you all the info you'll need in deciding if the car is worth pursuing. Take a look at the link below to our site's DIY tech articles on the W204 platform. Let us know if you have any questions or if we can assist with any future part needs. Hope this helps and best of luck!

Thank you very much for the encouragement and support! Happy to be a member! I have actually posted before about an E-Class I was looking at, maybe also about an SLK - in the market for a Merc anyway!
