Hi guys. Pretty new here, but hopefully here to stay. I'd like to thank some of you who helped out with some tips pre-purchase. Have some pictures here for now but will take a few more. She is in a pretty immaculate conditions inside and out, I tried really hard to find something which may have put me off of it. I guess these will come in time, if at all!
I did previously own a CLK280 which I already loved, but this brings it to a whole new level.
I am remaining cool however, as is usual with used cars and dealers, I don't trust them.
The engine runs smooth most of the time, I am however worried (although I've not had an M273 before) about some noise. In my opinion it's either lifter tick or scored cylinder wall. The plan now is to get her inspected, see if anything comes up and take it up with the dealer if there is!
Here's a vid for those curious.
