It took 4 years to figure out the loss of power upon acceleration which was finally diagnosed and repaired in 2015. I took it to multiple mechanics and Benz dealers and specialists from all over the world to find the problem which was the EGC in the injection pump. Along the way almost every part in the fuel delivery system was changed.There still are a cosmetic details that still need to be addressed. The paint on metal is in good condition but the paint on fiberglass trim needs to be repainted. Car was in a minor fender bender from previous owner. Bumper needs to be repainted as well. Motor is very solid, AC is strong. The roof rack has been professionally sandblasted and re-powder coated. I still have original front grille, and extra corner markers, and an extra injection pump from Russia. Headliner has stains from leaking sunroof seal which was fixed in 2013. Small areas of rust in the rear left corner near the bumper. If a sale is not finalized, may be listed in auto trader.
