300E a couple 1994 w124wagon E320 Wagon/,1971MGB Track/Rally, MG Midget Autocross ,2000 E320 wagon.
Strong runner

as with any M104 look for leaks,don't over pay just because it is an AMG where you are parts will be hard to come by.For that one year only model.
inspect,inspect,inspect.Don't expect stellar fuel mileage.

It was

a w210 along with the E50 and 55 and 60,nice to pick up an E60 amg wagon
they all looked like W210's

once again.Inspect
at least you have a dealer in town.I had to refer a member that lives on
New Caledonia to get parts for his E class at the mb dealer in your city.
Have the transmission inspected,check the engine head for oil leaks and around the timing cover.How many Km?

1991

Mercedes aquired 51% 1999 they got majority ownership,the 1996 E36 the op is asking about is a w210 model with the stroked M104 pulls like a train sucks fuel down and in Australia if low Km is probably going to cost him an arm and a leg
Blast of a drive down to Bendigo

How many Km?

have it professionally inspected and inspected twice if in doubt,look for rust,have the transmission tested for operation.Really consider the fuel issue.Are you sure it would not be wiser to pay the money you are for rarity and get newer and modify to suit your needs?
ohlord
something along these lines

OHHHHHH

if it is in good condition it will go real good
So will you fuel bill
E320 1998-2002 will do 135 ,Mods are easy,drop,tint,rims.How fast do you want to go?
You need to weigh the condition issue and your ability to do the repairs yourself.Old school AMG mechanics are hard to come by and probably even harder in Bris

it has 115 000km on tacho with service books. It is good car but old and bad on fuel. And seems that auction ended up early, so seller gave up on sale or sold prior.
But anyways i think i'll be look for a nice CLK320 c208 if i find one resonably prices as most seller ask ridiculus amount. Wish was living in Germany.
or even C180 Kompressor, CL203 would be nice

By the way i'm from Melb not Bris....

The E36 was very rare (much more so than the C36). The rarest of them was probably the SL36 but still the E36 is a very cool & rare car from a collectors standpoint
