@seller thank you! Very informative and quick response. Will watch in the final hours and may bid, this came up at the last minute for me so we'll see.
@seller a few last min questions if I may (sorry I just learned of this listing) 1. If I'm reading it right the June 2022 invoice says that the left front strut, while the listing mentions both fronts. Do you know when the right front were replaced, and what brand/model are currently installed now? Does adaptive damping function normally? 2. The October 2025 invoice shows genuine Mercedes rear air springs, while the YT vid mentions Arnott. Which is it? Does the car maintain its height after sitting several days? I assume it does but want to clarify the which are installed. 3. Is there any documentation identifying the Eurocharged tune, its minimum required fuel octane, and compatibility with the current pulley? Does the 83 mm measurement refer to the pulley’s belt-contact diameter? 4. I might have missed it in the docs, but could you upload the completed September 2026 repair invoice (unless its there, let me know)? Were both front thrust arms replaced, and has the rear-main-seal repair remained dry since completion? 5. The January 2024 service note mentions a garage post incident affecting the driver’s rear bumper and quarter panel. Was any quarter panel repair or refinishing performed, or was the work limited to the bumper and clips? Is the history of the notch under the front bumper known? 6. Longshot here but is there an existing Mercedes diagnostic scan available, could you share it? Are there any current warning messages, intermittent faults, fluid leaks, or fuel odors after filling the tank (still spooked by that haha)? Thank you!
New to MB Market, and have owned 3x E55, the last one an 06 which I deeply regret ever selling (I got spooked after the water pump / fuel tank fiasco). Regarding that pesky water pump and fuel tank, was that ever taken care of under the 15 yr extended warranty that Mercedes stretched it to? Also, yes those wheels are amazing but for some reason I prefer them much more on the SL. That said, they are valuable and if I were the new owner I could sell them, replace with stock and keep some cash, perhaps. The only other thing I'd do is go back to the classic grill, but as mentioned, can get those from Mercedes. This is a beauty, will be watching.
