FF. W212 E63 M156 non-pano 18" P2 ParkT NightV (gone but will be missed).
Maybe a Weistec unit. I wonder what stage is it.

What do you want out of this car ... something turn key and go or something you know you'll have some issues with because it's heavily modded?

from what i can tell its a base no mods - turn key and go. its between this and a g class. i know there is a big difference between the two but i wont go back to a c class and not really feeling the s or the ml.

also something to turn and go not looking to mod it much.

Get a PPI! A VMI would also be helpful. IIRC deadbolt failure was a potential issue.

thanks for the feedback, it seems the head bolts are quite a problem but can be a hit or miss. I will most certainly have the vehicle inspected before purchase.
