looking to buy 99 320 cab

Don't have any experiences with mercedes but like the look of the older clks. I have found a reasonable 99 for sale with 100k miles and what seems to be original roof and paint. What should i look for in a PPI prior to purchasing the vehicle. I also thought about a 430 but this one seems to be a great deal. Could these be a daily drivers given their age?

thanks

Tops tend to have a few glitches here and there. Check to see if the seat motors are in working order. Most of the other stuff is the same things you check when buying any used car. These cars are great daily drivers just as long as you preform all maintenance. Hope you're not afraid of wrenches. Hahaha good luck.
