Advice on buying a 2001 E430

[space_cricket]

I'm looking to buy a beautiful desert silver metallic 2001 E430. Could any one offer any advice regarding any problems I should be on the look out for? I'd greatly appreciate any help you could give me.


Best regards,

Inspect it for RUST at The tops of the doors..front spring mounts at the frame rails...

Crank pulley..cracks
Motor mounts
A/C Temp sensor
Cat conv rattle
front lower control arm bushings
cracked dash pad
fuel sending unit
any stored codes
loose front seat frames

ask for the vin and have a dealer run it...it will tell you any repairs..warranty and or customer pay
