(Ex S211 E500, W212 E500, C216, S212 E500, W211 E500 5.5, W221 S500, S211 E500, SL500, S500, E55)
So, it was coffee break time, and I still can't find a car to replace my "leggy" (but actually immaculate) 60,000 mile Estate.

So I looked at high mileage Mercs on Autotrader to help justify keeping my E500 for another year up to the dizzy heights of 70k

Wow - it's extraordinary the condition of so many 250,000 mile plus cars for sale on Autotrader

(OK, I know it's just the photos, and that the reality might be worse)

We've all sat in the high mileage taxis in Europe, but it's amazing to see these cars in the UK.

Anyone got any stories about 250,000 mile Mercs - for good or ill ?
 
60.000, leggy?
 
I am going from a 147K c class to a 276K e class (W211) shortly. I fancy taking the car to 300K and onwards for the sheer hell of it. Why not keep your E500 and put another 100K on it?
