W210 E320 CDI 1999
An introduction is due since i find myself on this forum alot lately. I'm from germany and I'm currently driving a 1999 E320 CDI with 246k km on it.

It's on KAW 55/40 lowering springs on some TEC 19" Wheels. I do plan to repaint the car because it has many many rockchips and rustspots, but i really want to keep the blue... so im still torn whether i should do it or not.

Looking forward to help and being helped here!

Welcome to the forum.

Those alloys really suit the car and I really like the colour. I don't think I've seen any W210 that colour in the UK.
The mileage isn't an issue on the car provided its regularly serviced. Just look around at how many are used as taxis the world over.
Provided the rust is being kept at bay its well worth a fresh coat of paint IMO.

Hi and welcome.
The old 210s are great cars. Ours has chugged its way past 160k miles (260k Kms) and still runs sweetly.

Hi, lovely car :cool: nice colour too, I have no issue with cars collecting a few stone chips and dents here and there, I think of them as character :rolleyes:.... having said that there is nothing uglier than rust, I wont drive a car if it has any visible rust.
