Hi all
I put a deposit down on a new car today!! First Merc I've had and I hope it will be a Good one.
46k on clock and fmbsh.
Ive had a few cars over the years and have just given a company one back to get this. I looked at Audi- chain issues, bm - chain issues and Merc- chain issues
Initially I was put off the Merc by the issues I read but I didn't think I'd find a luxury German commute without risks. I was very impressed after testing two - I ended up giving up the one with heated leather for one without but with comand. I believe, from research, I should be in the clear with injectors though? Could anyone clarify if the 651 is a non interference engine? I.e if I get chain issues it won't be sudden death? I assume it wpuld be a couple of grand to sort? Also, provided the garage I've bought off is approved, I was planning to take out tier one. Am I better off keeping a pot? The car is pretty clean and chuffed however I want to make sure my eyes are open. Sorry, I know it says don't ask questions here but it' more newbie advice I was after.
Thanks
