Buying an estate

[oldman]

i am looking to buy an Estate, probably about a 1992 - 1995. I had a look on the classifieds on the site here but there were only 3 for sale. Anyone got any tips on where else to look (generally owners club websites give well looked after cars). Any help / advice is welcome.

Try:
www.autotrader.co.uk
www.exchangeandmart.co.uk/motoring/
motoring.loot.com
www.ebay.co.uk
www.usedcarmart.co.uk

Some of these sites are more user-friendly than others. I got my estate through the Autotrader one. The loot site and the ebay site actually allow you to put "Mercedes Estate" in the "search" option, whereas if you're interested in any Merc estate you have to put the individual models (200TE, 230TE etc.) in one-by-one on the Autotrader and E&M sites.
Obviously buying a car through ebay is going to be a bit risky - definitely look at the car before bidding if you can.

Hope you get a good 'un!
