Price check for my 2001 57K 210 wagon
Hi all,
I own a 2001 E320 210 wagon with 57K miles. Car is white over tan leather and presents very well due to the exceptional mechanical and cosmetic car it has received over it's life. B service (including all plugs fluids and filters) was done @ 50K ahead of schedule. Oil is Mercedes spec 229.3 or 229.5 since new. Car is hand washed and waxed by me on a regular basis using Maguire's professional grade products. Interior receives regular leather conditioner and protectant. Service records since new. I am the 2nd owner- I purchased from an elderly couple who traded their 124 chassis wagon in on this one when new. My issue is this. It is an obviously well kept car that presents well. What should I ask for it when selling? I purchased a BMW M5 to replace it, and I still have my 211 chassis CDI, so I have an idea of what these cars are worth. I am looking for pricing suggestions that would allow me to sell the car within 60 days without giving it away. Car is in FL if it makes a difference. I would appreciate anyone's sincere feedback.
Thanks,
A

300E a couple 1994 w124wagon E320 Wagon/,1971MGB Track/Rally, MG Midget Autocross ,2000 E320 wagon.
At a premium
for low miles you might get mid to high 8k if that
high 14's asking will get you nothing but lol
AMG's don't demand those prices

hey man, I'd buy it for 8k - is there any rust from being near saltwater?!?!.....If it's as 'mint' as you say it is, then you'd be giving it away at 8k! No less than 9-10k and you're good - 12k should be the high end though...it depends on the true condition of the car and the FL market....what does edmunds say?....check for similar on ebay and compare....good luck!

All good advice. I am going to stick it in front of our housing community today and tomorrow with a "for sale" sign in the window. We have a community garage sale, and I am sure that one of these folks will want a vehicle that can haul all their "treasures". If that doesn't generate interest, then I will list it on CL @ 12.5k in order to scare off the lowballers.
