Mercedes 1989 190E 2.30L
Description
MY HUSBAND PAID A MECHANIC TO DO A TUNE UP AND PUT A FUEL FILTER ON DUE TO WHEN I GOT READY TO TAKE MY DAUGHTER TO CHILDCARE YOU WOULD HAVE TO START THE CAR 10 TIMES BEFORE IT WOULD START. ONCE THE CAR GOT STARTED IT WOULD RUN LIKE A CADILLAC. I GOT TIRED OF PRAYING THAT THE CAR WOULD START AND NOT MAKE ME LATE FOR WORK SO MY HUSBAND BOUGHT ME A NEW CAR. THE CAR HAS BRAND NEW SPARK PLUGS, WIRES, FRESH OIL, OIL FILTER, AND A FUEL FILTER. THE CAR STARTED UP FINE FOR ABOUT TWO DAYS, BUT WHEN IT GETS COLD IT GOES BACK TO NOT STARTING FOR ABOUT 10 TURN OVERS. NOW WITH THAT BEING SAID IT IS NOT THE STARTER BECAUSE WE HAD THE MECHANIC TAKE THE STARTER OFF AND WE HAD IT TESTED AT AUTOZONE AND THEY CLAIM IT PAST THE TEST. WE WERE GOING TO CHANGE THE FUEL INJECTORS BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT EVERYONE TOLD US TO DO WHO ARE FAMILAR WITH THIS MODEL OF MERCEDES, BUT THERE IS NO NEED NOW SINCE I HAVE A NEW CAR. NOW THE PERSON I BOUGHT THE CAR FROM TWO YEARS AGO DIDN'T TELL ME THAT HE PUT A NEW CATAYLAC CONVERTER ON THE CAR BEFORE HE SOLD IT TO ME AND I TOOK IT TO BE SMOGGED AND IT FAILED AS A GROSS POLLUTER EVEN WITH THE NEW CONVERTER WHICH IS WEIRD. I WAS TOLD THAT THIS CAR HAS TWO CONVERTERS. I AM NOTSURE WHY HE ONLY RELACED THIS ONE. I ALSO DON'T KNOW IF CHANGING THE OTHER CONVERTER WOULD HAVE MADE A DIFFERENCE. THE TAGS ARE UP SO YES YOU WILL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL OF THAT SO PLEASE KEEP THAT IN MIND BEFORE YOU MAKE ME A OFFER. THE LAST TIME I CHECKED THE TAGS THEY WERE $150.00 AND THAT WAS A YEAR AGO. I AM SURE THE TAGS ARE AROUND $250.00. THE CAR WILL BE SOLD AS IS NO WARRANTY IMPLIED. BUYER IS RESPONSIBLE TO GET THE CAR SMOGGED. NOW THE INTERIOR FOR EXAMPLE THE SEATS ARE IN GOOD CONDITION EXCEPT FOR A 4 INCH SLICE ON THE DRIVERS SEAT WHERE YOU LAY YOUR BACK ON. THERE IS A PICTURE OF THE SLICE ON THE DRIVERS SEAT. I NOTICED WHEN I WOULD LET MY DAUGHTER SIT ON THE BACK SEAT THAT IT MOVES A LITTLE LIKE MAYBE THE BENCH SEAT DOESN'T LATCH. THE BEST WAY TO EXPLAIN THE BACK SEAT IS LIKE WHEN YOU ARE TRYING TO LOOK FOR CHANGE IN THE SEAT THERE IS A LITTLE GAP AND THE SEAT SHIFTS A BIT. THE HEADLINER IS TAN AND IN GREAT CONDITION. THE DASH BOARD SHOWS IT'S AGE WITH CRACKS AND THERE ARE SOME CRACKS ON THE DOORS. ALSO THE DASH DOESN'T LINE UP WITH SOME OF THE BUTTONS. THE PREVIOUS OWNER TOLD ME THAT HE TRIED TO CHANGE THE RADIO AND HE UNSCREWED THE DASH AND NEVER LINED IT BACK UP CORRECTLY. THERE IS A NICE CD CHANGER IN THE TRUNK MOUNTED THAT I NEVER TOUCHED OR LEARNED TO OPERATE. THE TIRES ARE IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. THERE IS A SMALL INDENTION ON THE TRUNK AS SHOWN IN THE PICTURES. THE SUNROOF OPENS UP. LAST, BUT NOT LEAST. I NOTICED WHEN I START THE CAR THE HEADLIGHTS FLASH BY THEM SELF FOR ABOUT TWO MINUTES, BUT ONCE YOU START DRIVING THEY STOP FLASHING. I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE HEADLIGHT SITUATION IS OR WHY THEY FLASH,BUT I HAVE DRIVEN THE CAR FOR 6 MONTHS WITH THE LIGHTS DOING THAT. ALSO THE PLASTIC LENS COVER ON THE HEADLIGHTS IS CRACKED. ONCE YOU PURCHASE THE VEHICLE I WILL LET YOU KEEP IT HERE AT MY HOUSE FOR UP TO 10 DAYS, BUT IF YOU DO NOT GET THE VEHICLE AND PAY THE REST OF THE MONEY IN 7 DAYS YOU WILL LOSE THE 500 DEPOSIT. PLEASE DO NOT BUY THIS CAR IF YOU DO NOT HAVE MEANS TO FIX IT. I AM A HONEST PERSON AND I DON'T WANT YOU TO HAVE A CAR SITTING AROUND WHEN SOMEBODY ELSE CAAN BE USING THE CAR WHO REALLY NEEDS A CAR. IF YOU HAVE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS PLEASE SEND ME A MESSAGE. THANK YOU
