My wife and I drove up from Toronto on a Saturday to see the car. We liked it. My wife loved the colour. You're correct...he had it listed for $16,000. That was "aspirational" to be sure. I offered him $10,000. He said that for that price, "he'd keep it and give it to one of his kids". Apparently he changed his mind. I wound up finding a 2010 Canadian version of the car in London, Ont that only had 70,000 km at the time. Paid $15,000 for that one. Still have it, just turned over 200,000 km.
Small world. I tried to buy that exact car from Mr. Kennedy in Sudbury in May 2019 when it was for sale. Couldn't agree on a price. Very unusual uncommon colour. The US specs and lack of cold weather package was a concern as well, but obviously it starts.
Have you ever seen how looks snow, ice and air at -30? :D :D :D Around - 15C snow starts to cracking when walking. At -30 your breath in the air looks like you are smoking bong. Here you have close to -5 Celsius.
What are you smoking? It’s possibly the worst engine known to man. Oil cooler 100% for sure will leak in every car. Timing chains and ramps will always fail. Water pump will always fail. Crank case vapors get sucked in with poor PCV valve. Engine is 100% certain to leak, it’s a dreadful engine

No way! I think I remember him having it listed for $16k? We agreed at $10k. It served us well till I moved overseas 2 yrs ago!

The vehicle comes with a block heater, just plug it in
Where is this block heater and how to plug in it?
This model did not. It was from the U.S. originally. No block heater option
@@norontboyz5949
Look in front of the radiator, it’s tucked away. I bought mine used, and it had never been unwrapped.!
@@Ont785because the vehicle was from Texas originally, mercedes dealers did not install block heaters as they aren't necessary in warm climates.
@@norontboyz5949
Ah!, I didn’t know that. The Canadian cards do.
You have an injector leak by the sounds of it.
No injector leak, the belt was squeaky at that time and also had a very small exhaust leak.
@@norontboyz5949 It appears I heard the exhaust leak. And yeah, you can see the smoke in the engine bay.
They sound similar on video.
I thought that was a leaky injector to very similar sound 👍
