Re: [MBZ] Temptation 93 300CE $2200
"Not more than a few minutes without overheating" speaks loudly of a blown head gasket and intrusion of combustion gasses into the cooling system... cooling system holds about 16 psi... compression gases make 140 +- at 400 F, so compression blows into coolant and makes it hot, quickly. Quick check, Open coolant tank, start engine, look for bubbles and surging of coolant as cylinder pressure pushes out. If it does, head gasket is leaking.

Is 177k miles about when a head gasket job is required on those? Knock off a grand and that could be a deal.

I guess if your head has warped, than any Mercedes will look great.
