Buying a used 04 E55, need help!
So i'm trading in my 02 ml55 for 04 e55 with 15kms on it, it's not from Benz dealer but the guy is giving me a good deal, so what do you suggest I should look for? The car looks clean, should I give it to Benz delaer to inspect? It has nav,panarama roof, dynamic seats. wanted that car since i saw it cant wait to get my hands on it!!!
Suggestions are welcome!

04 E55 tectite grey/charcol....traded 01 E55
i traded my 01 e55 for a new 04 awhile back...u might want to make sure the software upgrade was performed for the command system...mine initially had the static problem which was fixed with the update. If you have a build date after 11/03 u may have the adaptive headlights... the only other suggestion is to check the tires...the orginal contis sucked...
Have fun...the 211 e55 is awesome

04 e55 every option but phone and adaptive cruise

The adaptive headlights are only available on cars with Xenon Lights. So make sure the 04 E44 you are looking at has the xenon's. And dont worry about the software updates and such. Your merecedes dealer could always apply those when you take the car in for maintainance. But make sure he has all his service records and such. Other than that go ahead and make the deal.
