In today's video I show off the new #w202 Mercedes that I picked up for only $500!
Came across an ad posted for this Benz for only $500, but it was stuck in limp mode and wouldn't go past 30mph. That was pretty much the only real problem. So as soon as I saw the ad, I contacted the guy and told him I would come pick it up right away. He said to hurry because he had lots of calls on it and that's what I did. 15 minutes later I was there with cash to pick up this ride. No negotiation needed as the car started up just fine. Gave him the money, got the title, called the tow truck and on the way, I went!
Now one downside to this car was the horrendous amount of chrome the previous owner had stuck on there! this actually took over 4 hours to remove it all lol.
The transmission issue in these cars is commonly the Transmission Conductor Plate, so that's what I am going to replace first along with new fluids.
Then this car will be getting new brakes, tires, battery, some fresh window tint and all new fluids. Should be driving like new again. Did I mention the interior is in almost perfect condition?!
If you're itching to ask questions about this magnificent resurrection, drop your queries in the comments section, and I'll be your guide on this ride.
