2001 E430
Hello from Seattle!

Hi there, I'm new to both the forum (though I've lurked here in the past) and to Mercedes. I recently got a 2001 E430 (from the original owner), with 80,000 miles, and has been mostly dealer serviced. I've pined for a W210 since they were introduced, but was focused on other stuff (I've been obsessed with British cars since I was very young). The last few years, I have looked for something from the W210 platform, but at this point, a lot of what's out there is not in the best shape. I'd nearly given up, but this E430 popped up on craigslist...the next day, I drove away in it with a bill of sale in my hand. Now if I can just figure out why my mileage seems SO terrible

I love this thing, though...it's every bit as great as I'd ever imagined. Also by far the MOST powerful thing I've ever driven.

One pic from the night I bought it, and another after I'd registered it and gotten new plates!
