I just drove a '01 SLK 320 that has 217K miles on it. The story is the original owner commuted a very long way daily.

In any event it drove great, felt tight to me.

Any worries about the high milage?
What would be a good price considering the following:

Needs windshield
Several stone chips on front
Interior is perfect (heated seats/cd changer/etc)
couple minor scratches here/there
will need tires before long
has records
silver

Thanks in advance....

With such high mileage in such a short time, there's really not too much to worry about yet. Change all the filters and fluids, check the brakes, check for leaks, and you should be good for another 200K.

Better be getting a killer price on it. That's a lot of miles. It's hard to find a buyer for such a high mileage car so I would price it out on blue book and edmonds and NADA booklet first and bargain it down some more.

Personally, I would not buy it if you may sell it later. It'll be hard to get rid of later on.

High mileage on a MB means nothing 200k is just getting started for the car

They're built to drive on and on and on. Especially, it's only a 3 year old car, all the parts are still pretty new, discounting the mileage. Unlike my 10 year old w202, your parts probably aren't rusted or wearing out like mine.

I would get a MB tech to go over the car, check for joints, brakes, belts, pretty much a overall checkup. I wouldn't worry about the mileage...it'll still go for a long time!

Interesting if it still got original transmission, is it AUTO or Manual ?
