Rust.  Big killer on those.  Everything else is sort of normal
MB stuff.  Oh, and the soft top condition matters, as a new one
is kind of spendy.  Though there are those of us who care little,
since that top is up so rarely!

So rust, paint, and ominous engine noises are bad.  But for the
price, if you can't see the ground through the floorboards, it
looks presentable and it runs, I'd say go for it!

Do not expect particularly good mileage, though.  And beware of
leaky D-Jet hoses, those can cause fires so I hear.
