Hi All,

I have just viewed a nice E320 cabriolet, everything seems good, low miles, HPI clear, main dealer history upto 2000, no history after
(although i have contacted the previous owner and have the mileage confirmed). Independently serviced after 2000 but no history.

Now the sticking point, the Interior, it is supposed to be a mushroom colour, it really does look old and faded, there are no cracks, the colour looks almost like a cream white. There are few scratches but nothing major. I understand that the car is old, the interior looks old and dirty.
generally the interior lets the car down.

It has kind of put me off the purchase, should I walk away or is this something that a nice Valet could resolve.

The main stickin points;
1) no history after 2000
2) the Leather interior and dash look old and dirty. the vinyl trim also is very dirty. The carpet and boot carpet also looks faded and dirty.

please advise forumites.. should walk or should I buy.

Thanks in advance
