Get a pre purchase inspection from a benz dealer or knowledgeable indie. They usually run $200 or so. They are a great cars but at that mileage it could need a new headgasket ($1000), valve guides ($500), timing chain ($500), air conditioning (thousands), motor mounts ($250), rear suspension, power steering pump, etc.

I'm not trying to dissuade you, but you should know what you are getting yourself into. Aftermarket grilles are available on ebay or at performance products.

nuff said.
