Hi I joined the club last April when I bought a c209 CDI 270 with 126k on the clock. At the time I thought it was a steal, a 2 owner car with an immaculate body (the car not me). I never posted but simply used the club to gather information about why for example, when I parked the car facing uphill over night it was a struggle to start in the morning. Alas this was not the only issue, full front suspension rebuild, new rear shocks, sudden and rather catastrophic leak of oil from the gear box and to cap it all, auxiliary belt broke when the aircon condenser seized. So frankly not much to cheer or shout about. Last weekend I decided I needed the rock solid reliability of a Lexus. Fortuitously (?) my head was turned by a 'low' mileage W219 320CDI with 70k on the clock, I had to have it. Granted it's only Tuesday but having just taken it for a spin up the M1, I love it, a great cruiser and so quiet. Now that I have a car I'm proud of I'll be posting a lot more. Granted it's only 3 days in but I'm forever the optimist.
 
Wishing you better luck this time :)
 
Hello and welcome
 
Great car. I'm looking for one myself.

Hope you have better luck with this one.
 
Hi,welcome the forum
 
Welcome. I'm fairly new to this forum myself, but I've been on the 'other' forum for a good while now.
