Considering the country the OP is in and how crazy hard and expensive it is to find cars I think it was the best idea. There are often post about people buying say a C230 or C200 and wanting it have more power or so. In America we just buy a new car. In other countries not so much. There is a member here who paid I think $55,000 for a CLK350 in SA that was 3 years old and had some miles on it. Due to the rarity of them.
