These have the upgraded front end (headlights, hood, grille etc), this one of course has leather, the upgraded sound system etc. As far as longevity, this one has about 115k on it so its still like a new car just about. I have seen many of these in the 250k range with no problems. Most of them for sale these days has 160k or so on the low end up to like I said, 250k. I know a guy locally who has a 92 (before the face lift) with over 250k and no problems. I have honestly not really heard of any problems with the 119 engine. Its a very advanced motor and for the time was light years ahead of previous mb engines. Craig McCluskey wrote: > On Sun, 20 Jul 2008 09:34:30 -0500 "Kaleb C.
