New MB owner 2000 E430 (Pics)
Well I just got my first MB off of my GF's Dad. He took VERY VERY good care of this thing. I have a file that is 2 inches thick from the records he kept on it. Car has 80K miles and it looks like all the little trouble things have been replaced. Yesterday I clayed the car and posished it with Zaino. Only small things I plan on doing it getting the matching wood shifter handle and MAYBE a new air filter. I see there are many opinions on them here...lol. But all in all the car is sooooooooo nice. Feels good to own a MB.

Thanks guys. I may be looking to get some 18/19" AMG takeoffs if some come available somewhere. I like the 17's on there now and they would have great tires for winter, but I would like something bigger for the summer. Thanks again!

Congratulations!
Sweet car! I like that wood-trimmed steering wheel also, PLUS, from the looks of the dashboard, you have several of the available ($$) options. Good Luck!
