Finding a Merc
Been looking around town for either an E55 AMG or a CL55 AMG. I keep going back and looking at this one. But yesterday I took a closer look and found a few things.
Also had an ESP message error in the screen after shutting the car off.
Other Mercedes owners have told me to run away and fast. It's a 2003 CL55 AMG with 108k on it. Its pretty clean. Interior is like brand new and everything works except the a/c.
They wanted $12900 for it, but had talked them down to $10k. But now I've found all this stuff. So........still on the fence. I did test the suspension by pressing the button about 15 times and it worked fine. But I know the ABC could be a nightmare. I let the car idle for about 30 minutes and it ran great. The coolant temp looked good. Didn't drive it though, I know I'd have to drive it of course.
What do you guys and gals think?
