Picked up a 2007 LX on Friday after a quick deal done earlier in the week. Found a freshly listed LX with 49,000 miles in my town. I'd been looking all over the country and this was too good to pass up. Made time over lunch to get to the dealer and check it out. Told them I wanted it and we made it work. Apparently they had 7 call on it during that first day - one was a guy in the classifieds here. It was at a local Benz dealer and had just been traded in. Was still dirty and needed to be detailed. They also did front and rear brakes and repacked the wheel bearings. It's in great shape other than a few small paint chips. Has a good history too. Anyway, I'm super excited to play around with the 100. Need to sell my 80 now, although I really want to keep it for my son. Unfortunately, he only turns 14 this year and having an extra car sitting around might be a pain.
Took it out for a little spin yesterday. I'm pretty sure this was the most "off road" than it has ever seen!
First up is removing the running boards then I need to get some tires. I have KO2s on the 80 and KOs on my Sprinter so I'm pretty sure I'll be doing KO2s on this - 275/70/18 seems like the way to go. I also need to get a Blue tooth adapter for some music.
Mud has been great!
And some pics of the 80.
