2004 e320 wagon. good deal???
http://eurocaroc.com/web/1208/vehicl...s-E320%20Wagon
Looking to update wife to a new wagon so that i can get out of my 190e and into wife's current 99 4matic wagon. Any opinions? We bought our 99 wagon from the same dealer and are very satisfied with the vehicle. I am familiar with the w210's but unfamiliar with the w211 body and it's reliability issues.

Having just bought a W211 E500 Wagon, my advice would be to get a CPO car. These things are complicated, and the earlier models are getting to an age where some of the corners MB cut in the design are coming through. So, get a factory-backed warranty, and you'll be happy, I think. If you buy without, I would 1.) Get an independent MB mechanic to give it a detailed look over, 2.) try every feature twice to make sure stuff works, and 3.) make sure you have a slush fund for repairs.
Good luck.
Good luck.
