    Buying advice W204/W212

    Hello everyone. I'm new here. I'd like to get some advice as I'm looking to buy a used Merc saloon with a budget between £5000-7000. I'm looking at mainly W204s (petrol) or W212s (fat chance) petrol as well. What would you consider as a sensible upper limit for mileage assuming I'd want to use...
