@balancerider is correct Not great but ive changed fluid on quite few older models with 'lifetime fluid', all had done over 200,000km. If its shifting good then i think you'd be fine with a service. I dont really keep track of what these are actually selling for so cant help with that . With what's known about it id say its average example in general. so . They tend to be fairly cheap for a reason when they reach that age\mileage, not many people spending money on refreshing and doing preventative repairs on cars like this. You do get a fair bit of car for the money which is the appealing part i suppose. Everyone is different when it comes to acceptable maintenance costs, but if you have to pay someone to work on it then id say a mechanical warranty is needed along with the above.

Oops didn’t spot the suspension comment. Apparently aftermarket air springs are decent and not horrendously expensive. fairly certain the f10/f11 were n55 engined from the get go

Some people got a phobia against anything green. As long as its HOAT type and you dont mix you wont have an issue. Penrite is OEM approved. Mercedes had a water quality document i read along time ago and most NZ water was acceptable for mineral etc content iirc.

I'm still loving this wee car. B58 coil swap done recently. 100-200 now 6.29 seconds. Drag racing season about to start

This is becoming project content. I fried my turbos a month ago and just replaced the cartridges yesterday. Such a painful job, N54 sucks 😄
