Hey all,
I've been tempted by an 06 cls500 AMG with 85k miles. I'm a bit worried though, because for once I want to keep a car for years. What are common things to be prepared to fix between 85-125k? Anything I should look out for?

Attached MB data card lists factory installed equipment, view marketing brochure here http://www.auto-brochures.com/mercedes_benz.html as a stipulation of deal see if they will obtain MB Vehicle Master Inquiry (VMI) from local MB dealer for you this will give a service history of warranty/maintenance/etc. work performed by MB. Importantly, ATF should be changed every 40,000 miles/4 years (whichever comes first) so if it was not changed recently, see if they will include it in the deal. BTW, you should be posting here https://mbworld.org/forums/cls-coupe-c219-65/
