Bought a Silver 2002 E55

Just want to share that bought a 2002 Silver with 2 tones interior.
This car has the most equipment I believe in W210. It has parking sensors, Cooled/heat seat, voice command, wood Steering wheel like Brabus, Navigation with 118K miles. Here some pix.

nice car.

try to find folding mirrors, retrofit this option.
all UK cars were fitted with folding mirrors as a standard option.
there are people on UK forum breaking w210 cars, maybe you'll be lucky to find folding donor mirrors
then you'll have all switch centre console

look for AMG or Brabus doorpins they are much nicer than plastic golf pegs MB are using on US sold cars

So far, I need rear tires and valve gasket seal. The car recently has rebuild tranny due to coolant leak contamination. So new radiator as well and new AC compressor. Time to do some maintenance now. Oil change, air filter, new belt...

at what mileage did your car suffer from coolant contamination?
at low miles or high miles 100+++, what does your documents say?

The tranny was rebuilt about 2K miles ago so approx 116K.

I wonder if you can upgrade the ventilated seat fans like the 211 guys. It was a nice feature to have, but they were a bit underwhelming; I do wish I had them now though.

I've got same interior but with the crappy two-tone steering wheel now stained and worn. Yours looks sweet.
