@mikelaca thanks Mike. You bought a really nice car for $7k. Personally I think its worth a bunch more. Let me know your pick up plans when you can. Gary$7,000 bid placed by @mikelaca
This actually looks like a really good spec although it’s hard to tell by the photos. All the main wear points of a typical 210 look really clean here. If I was looking for a 4matic I’d snatch this up. Can’t beat a M113 with 4matic$5,250 bid placed by @CTBenz

@erichollis very true. I find it hard to believe this is a 25 year old car when I take a ride. I like it much better than the loaners the dealer gives me for sure! I think this era of Benz was way better built.I have the exact twin of this car, color, mileage and all, except that i have xenon headlights and no 4matic. It’s my daily driver, and ive put 30k troublefree miles on it in the last two years. Bulletproof, and if you are good with your hands, cheap to maintain.$2,500 bid placed by @Bankrep40
@mikelaca no rock chips on the windows.I'd like to add a little more detail about the car. First, there is a typo in the write up. I'm not a selling dealer. I'm the private owner. This is an exceptionally nice 25 year old example of a W210. It drives and handles beautifully. The interior is in excellent condition. Note, the headliner sag in the rear is normal for W210's. If I were to keep the car, I would leave the sag since I don't find it to be an issue. However, it's not a major project to replace. The paint is original and in excellent condition. Any minor stone chips have been touched up. The engine compartment is excellent as well. I have the receipts to show the previous owner and myself took very good care of this car, as well garage kept. Note, most of the major work these cars all require has been done like motor mounts, trans mounts, a/c compressor and flex discs. Additionally the front half shafts were replace because the boots were split.@seller Are there any rock chips in the front and / or rear window as it can be hard to see those in even the best photos or video?@mikelaca I'll look for the email. The spare is from 4/19. It's a Continental. As far as tread depth, from what I can measure, the tires are between 5.25 and 5.6 MM.@gnoub51 Thank you. I emailed you using the contact seller button so maybe you can reply with a photo that way?I do not see a way to add a pic. I can email a picture of the front pads if you'd like.The date codes for the tires are the 25th and 30th week of 2020. I thought I posted pics of those dates. The tires have 15,000 miles on them. Don't know tread depth other than there is a lot of life left. I would need to check the spare and get a tire depth reading. I suspect the spare is older. The interior does not smell. The interior is very very nice. This is not a smoker car and I keep it very clean. It was detailed with ceramic coat about 6 months ago, including the interior. There are no rust spots around the doors and lower. The rear pads are new - see repairs list. The font pads appear to have about half of their life left. I have a picture of one of the front rotors and pads from about a month ago when the tires were being balanced and rotated. I will add in a little bit. I failed to mention is the listing that I have a set of new OEM rear rotors that I will include with the car.Hello, Can you comment on the following. 1. Tire tread depth and date code for all 4 wheels. 2. Date code for spare tire. Interior smells, scents, odors if any or otherwise describe what it does smell like. 3. Are there any rock chips in the front or rear window as it can be hard to see those in even the best photos? 4. Do you see any spots or areas of rust especially around the door and lower frame? 5. Brake life left on the front? Thank you very much.
