Chances are higher you find a 840.000km one than one with such a low mileage.
The ones we have in Europe are rusted through and mostly died.
Humid Winters , lots of water and salt on roads to melt ice help a lot in ruining cars
No he’s very wrong. Portugal is literally a European country.
And using African as a derogatory term is racist and ignorant and also just fucking stupid.
You Sir, are a moron practicing historic ignorance. By that reasoning half of Europe is either Italian or German and the English are actually Danes and French.
I literally bought a 220E this year for 9,1k and 143.000km under the dash. Tiny holes from rust by the wheels, easily fixed, runs like a charm. They‘re not all bad
These cars are so brutally ubiquitous in Europe there's no way that's the case. And in southern Europe there's zero snow, so no salt rust to worry about.
Apart from maybe an example in mercedes storage, its most likely the best condition car in the whole world.
Its not about if the car is worth that. If you dont take your chance here, you will probably never get another chnace again
It is more about the idea of owning such a low mileage car. However, this thing probably sit in a garage for majority of its life, so I am trusting a 300k diesel Mercedes from this gen more than this to be reliable tbh.
Yeah you may want to add a zero to your estimation. My former classmate had a 200D with over 2 million (km) and no problems. Granted it was more filler than metal below the door handles height, but still. The engines last for. Ever.
It used to be their car over in hungary too, it was all over the worse parts. But they dissappeared when the shitbox audis and e46 coupes got cheap.
Nowdays i only see a handful a week if i'm outdoors a lot. And they are definetly climbing in price
uj and kinda off topic, but how much would you realistically be willing to realistically pay for a good condition, relatively low mileage facelift w140 S320?
No those are all considered worthless because of the aftermarket mods. You might be able to sell it for $200, but I'm feeling really generous today so I'll come buy it for $300.
250 if you get here in the next hour with a cheeseburger Location is New Zealand.
Seriously though I thought the amg parts might be worth something one day it has a loom issue I couldnt really be fucked dealing with and I just threw a cover over it and forgot about it.
But now I’m thinking it might be worth fixing lol… it needs a whole new loom basically. If you have the indicator on and you step on the brake every light in the car flashes like an indicator truly hilarious.
Everyone wonders why low mileage cars sell for huge premiums, but those same people are deathly afraid of anything with over 120k miles on it. That's all it is. You think it's absurd? Stop fearing high mileage.
I suppose I shouldn't complain though. It means I can buy 200k+ mile cars for peanuts.
Plattform owners will promote insane deals that happend on their plattform to lure you to using the plattform.
Don't wanna diss "bring a trailer".. but that's just advertisement.
Damn, what are they gonna do when they find out about the existence of Europe?
Chances are higher you find a 840.000km one than one with such a low mileage. The ones we have in Europe are rusted through and mostly died. Humid Winters , lots of water and salt on roads to melt ice help a lot in ruining cars
Damn, what are you gointo to do when you find that not all of europe is humid, wet and has salty roads
Damn, what are you going to do when you realize Portugal isn't European
Are you serious?
Yes they're basically africans, no wonder they don't have salted roads
I upvoted the comment thinking it was a good joke. But holy shit this one made me rethink
So like, is Spain also basically Africa
Let me picture this for you https://preview.redd.it/99abyt202u5d1.png?width=1902&format=png&auto=webp&s=54133e8c80e472c103632071594f1abd95c6214e

You missed the fact that Portugal is eastern european
eastern europe isn't real they're all turkish
Not all of Spain, but it's true that Africa begins south of Rome
Ooooh racism. Maybe uh don’t?
Racism, is that like when Ricky Bobby says “if you ain’t first you’re last!”?
Exactlyyyy. Ricky Bobby might be one of my favorite racists.
Hes not wrong
No he’s very wrong. Portugal is literally a European country. And using African as a derogatory term is racist and ignorant and also just fucking stupid.
It's touching africa and last time I checked Africa is not a continent with more than a couple good countries if even
Or maybe it doesn’t snow over there
Elementary school education says hi (they failed another person)
Your father failed you lmao
Are you speaking from experience?
[ Removed by Reddit ]
Not only did school fail you, you also inherited your father‘s alcoholism
"I'm autistic" thank you for announcing that to the world as if I didn't already realize that
And the earth is flat, aye?
Yeah why?
You Sir, are a moron practicing historic ignorance. By that reasoning half of Europe is either Italian or German and the English are actually Danes and French.
You sir just won the kind stranger award, and I'm gilding you for this wholesome retort!
I literally bought a 220E this year for 9,1k and 143.000km under the dash. Tiny holes from rust by the wheels, easily fixed, runs like a charm. They‘re not all bad
Trust me mileage IS negotiable.
Be quiet, I'm about to buy some diesel shitboxes and ship them to US.
Might be the only one left that's not rotted.
It's a 90s Mercedes lol. These things will outlast the heat death of the universe.
Unless its a models with the bio wiring
It is a 95, so definitely had to be replaced - that shit didn't last longer than a decade
Decade? You were lucky if they even lasted, and didn't cause any fires or the likes
I've seen more of them in Morocco in 2024 than in Germany in 2004 ... These things will roam the sun in 2400 when earth has exploded
I've seen worse. Looking at you Ford collectors of Europe. "1987 Ford Sierra diesel for 30k! yes, please."
I'm not find it that shocking as those are incredibly rare. Most Fords until early-mid 90s went to the scrapyard before being 15 years old lmao
there is no way the buyer is not from south-eastern europe
These cars are so brutally ubiquitous in Europe there's no way that's the case. And in southern Europe there's zero snow, so no salt rust to worry about.
arguably the best mercedes ever made. With 8.4k miles
Apart from maybe an example in mercedes storage, its most likely the best condition car in the whole world. Its not about if the car is worth that. If you dont take your chance here, you will probably never get another chnace again
miles just don't really matter on that car. if taken care of they last forever and a bit longer
It is more about the idea of owning such a low mileage car. However, this thing probably sit in a garage for majority of its life, so I am trusting a 300k diesel Mercedes from this gen more than this to be reliable tbh.
agreed.
Rich collectors when old shitbox
Old? Yes. But this thing has 500k miles to go before it gets close to shitbox territory.
Yeah you may want to add a zero to your estimation. My former classmate had a 200D with over 2 million (km) and no problems. Granted it was more filler than metal below the door handles height, but still. The engines last for. Ever.
Fr. In 500k miles it might be a shitbox, but it'll go another million miles as a shitbox 😂
Old shitpox. Thing has less miles on the road than miles of dick that you've taken.
Dieselle ☑️ 🅱️rowne: ❌ 🤮blue: ☑️ Wagonne: ❌ Manuelle: 🤷♂️ No buy from me
Some kind of Tax-evasion?
It's not even S600 V12 wtf.
This Is like the gipsies car in Spain, not even the gipsies ride them anymore
It used to be their car over in hungary too, it was all over the worse parts. But they dissappeared when the shitbox audis and e46 coupes got cheap. Nowdays i only see a handful a week if i'm outdoors a lot. And they are definetly climbing in price
Most of Spanish models are now in Morocco converted to taxis. All of them over half a million km (300k miles)
Lol you could buy one with 108k miles and it's still going to outlast your grandchildren.
uj and kinda off topic, but how much would you realistically be willing to realistically pay for a good condition, relatively low mileage facelift w140 S320?
Worth
They’re preparing for the apocalypse
$7k
Jesus I have an amg version of this 1989 though in the back shed with the weird body kit, is it really worth this… I’ve had it for years
No those are all considered worthless because of the aftermarket mods. You might be able to sell it for $200, but I'm feeling really generous today so I'll come buy it for $300.

even the headlights have rain wipers 👍🏻
That’s pretty fair considering there’s probably none of these out there.
Don't tell them Albania exists 90 percent of the cars there are mercedes lol
I kept swapping the price and mileage when reading this because my brain couldn't take it
NEW META CAR JUST DROPPED, FORGET THE MODUS, EMBRACE W124
Unless this is Adolf’s car ain’t no way this is justified

People just buying anything for whatever
I just saw one of these for like 1,200 bucks lmao it was mint too looked just like this. Guy said no title but shoot it’s either that or 98,000$ extra
Let me tell you something...you didnt 😅 In relatively good condition and less than lets say 150k miles they start at around 8-10k
Theres no car like this anymore in the whole world. Probably mercedes themselves dont have such a great low mile car anymore
