01' 02' E55 pre purchase inspection?
I'm interested in a 01 or 02 E55 with 55K+ miles. What should I look or watch out for prior to inspection? What should I expect to be repaired in next 10-20K+ miles?
Thanks.

what to look for on a 210e55
Get the vehicles print out of service history from a MB dealer, not all dealers will print it out but some will and this will tell you the warranty and service history.
You can use a professional inspection service and they will look it over pretty close for a fee that some buyers think is money well spent.
As far as what you can expect to spend in the 10 or 20 thousand miles I don't know that answer? Generally the 210 e55 is very reliable with some having trouble with window regulars and mAF sensors, and rust on some can be a big problem depending on where they come from.
I really like my e55 and have not had any trouble to speak of in 50,000 miles.
