Hello all from Washington State
I am 47 and just bought my first Mercedes-Benz. Its a 1991 300E.
It is mostly stock. The only thing the guy did to it was put H&R suspension on it and some aftermarket wheels and tires.
I live in Bremerton Washington but was born and raised near Pittsburgh Pennsylvania.
I did 20 years in the Navy as an Electronics Tech on submarines.
After I retired the wife and I decided to stay out hear.
I now work for a property management group.
I am looking forward to getting advice on somethings about my 300E.
It has an air-condition issue and the temp gauge spikes once in a while but when you tap dash it goes back down.
But that is the only things really wrong with it besides it needing a new front bumper as bottom is cracked up.
I love working on cars. I have a 1961 VW Type I with a 2275cc motor with dual 40mm carbs.
It is slammed and has the cali look.
I have posted pictures of the 300E in my albums and will get an album up for the Type I as well.

MBWorld Fanatic!
Welcome. I love the look of the classic E -- those wheels go great with the body style too.
My son lived in Port Orchard until recently, so we visited that area often.
Enjoy the ride!

Welcome! Nice looking 300E. Love the headlamp wipers of that era.
