W204 2009 opinions

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.

While you can do DIY, MB parts are very expensive vs Japanese models. At 100k miles, any car starts to need work. I would consider a lower mileage car in this price range.
