Just got rid of my E Class which I bought new in 2004. Very few problems and 190,000 miles on the clock. Looking to buy a CL and thought I would join the MB Club and see if I can get some pointers.
I am in no hurry and will wait for months or more for the right car.
Always wanted a CL and never thought I could afford it. But second hand prices for a CL (7 or 8 years old) are about a third what I paid for my E Class back in 2004)
I intend to do as much of the maintenance work myself as possible. I have just installed a 2 post, 4 tonne lift in my workshop and intend to do all of the basic oil changes, filter changes, brakes, etc etc.
I have always dreamed of buying a top end car and keeping it for a long time.
If anyone can give me pointers on the research i should carry out prior to purchasing including any sources of info on DIY maintenance and repairs i would be grateful.
