Folks --
I'm 19, a student, looking at a '94 E320 with 157k, VIN WDBEA32E6RC150265 at an auction sitethat I'm hoping to get for under $1500. I've been reading about the things that I should ask about or check before buying -- boy, there's a long list -- and am wondering about doing a CARFAX check, too, but it looks like that costs money.
I won't be able to bring the car to a mechanic -- can anybody suggest the biggest visuals I should look for in checking out the car? Should I go ahead and pay for a CARFAX check? Thanks for any thoughts people might have.
