Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    tough car to sell, big engined, over 10 years old....
    Bearing in mind it is only worth what somebody is willing to pay, but if I was looking to buy such a car, I would expect the price to pay to be around €2800 to €3600 ( depdant on condition and service history ect.)..... advertised for €3200 to €4200....

    Not a lot I'm afraid. 2 - 3k?

    Especially since - on top of mileage, age, etc. - the E240 wasn't a good model at all I believe. Worst engine & power/weight ratio of the whole range. Horrible guzzler. Was told never even consider to buy one. But I guess that's just hearsay and you may correct me on that one.

    i was thinking about 3.5k to advertise and see what come's then i'll be sad to see her go.:( A lovely car to drive an armchair on wheel's not as bad as you think on juice when you drive it you feel like a king and when it's parked other drivers don't park to close i think they do be afraid of hitting her with their door's

    I was pricing a 01 E240 Auto Elegance recently with average mileage. Best trade bid we could get was €4k - and there were people who declined to bid at all.

    Yours'll be worth less again...
