That's not that old and they're pretty straightforward to work on... assuming it has been owned by someone who gave a fuck and it's not just completely ruined somehow... because having to get a new engine or transmission is a little more pricey in dollars or hours of work, depending.

I highly recommend Benzes. Generally. Particularly the diesels.
