You have a quarter of a million miles on the car unless there was a typo. I don't know if anyone would give a warranty on a car with that many miles.

Finding a company to sell you a warranty after 100K would be difficult. There are a few who will go out to 125K but that is if you buy it wayyy before you get there. To find one who will warranty a car with over 250K is....well....

There are "any year any mileage" power train warranties out there ...but they are also notorious for never paying claims

A Mercedes obviously!
I've got a '04 600 with 22 months of Chrysler Maximum Care warranty left (90,400 on the clock) that I'm looking to sell v.shortly. Haven't yet got good photos but it's probably the easiest (and cheapest!) way to get a warranty on a 220 nowadays

Price ??

Agreed that buying one of these with the Chrysler warranty is the best way to go to avoid repair bills

I'm looking at around $21,000 as a starting point. It's black with pebble interior, AMG package, Keyless Go, OEM Bluetooth, rear heated and cooled seats, professionally installed Dension GW500. Basically everything except Distronic and 4 seat package. Has 2 month old ABC pump too.
