found a car

Hi guys, as most of you know my 94 S420 was stolen about a month ago, i should have my insurance payment setteled next week,
I went to see a few cars in the past week or so since they dont think mine would be found.I found at a dealer a 97 S500 gold with 2 tone black and grey int.52,000 miles or in my case 84,000km in mint condition in and out, i ran a check on the car it is a one owner car, had the service records pulled up my my area MB dealer, no major work ever done to it, all the regular maintenance was done and the odometer was not rolled back. so i think this is the one for me, i'm going to have to mechanic go over it with a fine tooth comb and make sure it is a good one.
wish me luck, i'll keep you posted.
I cant wait to have a W140 again.

Make sure the AC/Heater system is working well. Check the shocks front and back.

Good luck!!!!!
