1993-1995 Cabriolet

I'm interested in buying a '93 300CE Cabriolet or "94-'95 E320 Cabriolet. Does anyone have any advise regarding which of these model years is best? I've been favoring the '95 because it was the last production year and since the limited info I've been able to find seems to favor its mechanical history. I've also heard that all these years have a history of engine wiring harness problems and leaking head gaskets. I'd appreciate any feedback you can provide in helping me make the best choice!

95 E320 Cabriolet, 108K
I've been surfing the MB websites since I bought my 95 E320 cabriolet last year. I'm not familiar with the 93, and I haven't heard any preferences between the 94 and 95 models. I recommend to simply go with what appears to be the best deal.

Are there that many to choose from where you live?
I would go for a facelifted '94 or '95. Most will be low mileage so condition and history are the most important things. Check the condition of the roof and that it fits properly. A Sportline model is very desirable (and like rocking horse poo!)
