Similar request as an earlier post, but this time in in Abergavenny. Heard of an S550 which is what I would prefer (love MB engines) Not advertised yet which is good news and whilst 170 miles is not too bad, it's still a fair trek to find it was a wasted journey especially for someone who does not know what to look for in the first place!
Understand it has the Mercedes OM601 engine which I believe is as bulletproof as these things ever are. Is the good reputation well deserved? What are the things to watch for on that engine and also the S550 in general?
Just asking for someone to take a look and tell me "yes, could be worth a drive" or "STAY AWAY"!! and if the seller seems reasonable. From our exchanges so far he seems sound (says selling due to worsening heath), but of course you never know!
Having said that, if someone was knowledgeable enough to look a little deeper and give an opinion (which is just that - an opinion) that would be great also and a huge help!!!!
Beer tokens or Charity donations available
