It has a V8 engine with 279hp. It has 220000 km. The exterior is clean, perhaps it has been repainted in the past? It has no rust underneath. The interior leather has been remade. The AC leaks! It will be used as a daily recreational car, mainly to go buy groceries and other stuff. It costs 7500.

Stay away. You will run into multiple issues that can be extremely hard to diagnose even at a dealership or specialty shop. Its also at the  Mileage where parts start to break and sensors fail. I have a 2003 e320 and I had some issues but I knew what to look for and how to fix them. I also have the technology to really look into them. If you don't have that ability you don't want to buy one.

No.

That has 136,700 miles, has a leaking AC, and out of warranty.  That’s a definite pass, unless you have a bucketload of money saved up to pay for the cost of repairs and - ideally - plan to do all the repairs yourself.

Nothing is more expensive than a cheap Mercedes

That is an endless money pit; run away from it.
