They ALL have head problems. The 2.5 dont crack heads, but the gaskets
usually go bad at some point over their lives. Its usually blowing oil
out, not coolant though. I wont say the ALL have the problem, but I
know all the ones I know of personally have.

He wants $4500 for it. What's the consensus on that price?"
That is what I sold OK Don my 1990 300D with 244K. Of course, I should
have gotten $5500 :-). I would question why this car needed a head and
a valve job. These cars (in my memory) do NOT have head problems. I bet
it is not as nice as OK Don's.
