Things I Might Want To Update on My 420?
Making liberal use of the search function the following seem to be the most popular. Am I missing anything?

------------
Euro Headlights with Clear Corners
Swaybars
Springs & Shocks
Larger Rims/Tires

The car has 126,000 miles, which seemed like a better buy than an E320 with 80,000. Its is hopefully over the hump in terms of maintenance, the upper and lower harness have been replaced. Believe the radiator has as well. The Evaporator is original so I'll have to watch it. Cars at the shop right now getting a look over
