Cheap Mercedes are extremely expensive. Do you homework! Less than $20k will likely be a money pit. Check out Hoovies garage on his E55 wagon purchase.
- The cheapest and best value would be an R129 V8 if you don’t need 4 seats.
- Mercedes through from 00-06 were sketchy. I would avoid any _55 other than a G unless it’s very clean.
- check out Bruce_M auctions on BaT. He sells some well sorted Mercedes that sometimes are no reserve that people downright steal. BaT $25k ‘07 S65
-V12 require more maintenance. Make sure all the maintenance is already done.
-_65 brakes are crazy expensive. Make sure they are new(ish).
I’ve watched from afar and really want one.

Bruce sells a lot of v12 mercs on BaT. The stories behind the stories are pretty entertaining when they come out.
Making sure the maintenance is done isn't as important as making sure you aren't paying for it like the maintenance is done. A good and fair mechanic is important.

The maintenance is why the depreciate so bad.
I considered a 645Ci a number of years ago but then checked maintenance. $5-6k for valves seals that they all end up needing.
Pass.
Just looked one up. Only $4995 for a '05 645Ci with 105k.
