Default New Benz Owner

I drove a 300e for years and when my Rover blew a head gasket was quoted 6500 for the repair, I decided that picking up a cheap used car would be more to my liking so hit the internet scouring for a decent used car.

I found a 95 c280 online that was apparently kept in pristine shape so I made the call and met with the owner to view the car. I couldnt believe it... the car looked like a brand new car.. no cracks anywhere, drove perfectly, no scratches or faded paint anywhere.. seriously like a new car.. yet the car has 230k miles.. I was shocked.. soi bought the car.. heres the best part.. for 2500 bucks.. I've now driven the car about 1000 miles in the last week, and am more impressed now than I initially was, the car is amazing to drive.. quite effortless and with plenty of gusto for getting around. It shows the quality that is put into the vehicles, if the vehicle could be driven this far and still look and function like a new car to me that is priceless. I suspect I'll have periodic trouble, at this mileage something's bound to go **** up at some point, but for the price this has got to be one of the most underrated vehicles on the planet.. Great Car, Great Product.. and am conviinced I should've never strayed from the Benz path,
