2000 e320 Mb on grass for 3 years, is it safe?

Topic starter

My father had left his old car on our lot that is made of grass, and the car previously was well maintained, but now has been sitting on grass for 3 years now. I was wondering if you think it would be safe enough and good enough to drive again if I get it running. Just need some input if you have any experience on a situation like this.

Sitting is the worst thing that can happen to a car. 

 

You'll want to drain and replace all the fluids, put new tires on it, and that's just for starters. Once you get it running, I would get a mechanic to check it out and scan it to see what the system looks like. No real way to tell if it is worth fixing until you get at least that far, so just depends how much time, effort, and money it is worth to you.


Thank you so much for your help! And I’ll do just that when I get the opportunity. Thanks again.

it could be but you'd have to inspect it. it will need some work.


Thank you for your reply, anything I should be worried about other than fluids and parts that need to be replaced (oil filters, bulbs, batteries..etc)?


again, you need to inspect it. I don't have a magic mirror.
