It's around 95F to a hundred here in the tropics specially now that summer is in full blast!
I pulled over a 7-11, turned off the ignition and got my self a cold soda. Took me about 10 mins inside the store. Upon returning to my P, I was surprised that the rear fan (the one attached to the rear engine hood) was on in full blast!
Is this normal? Should I wait for the fans to turn off before leaving the vehicle or something? Wouldn't this drain the battery if it happens every now and then? This is the first time I noticed the fans turning on by themselves
Do you guys experience this?

Custom exhaust system with magnaflow high flow cats, magnaflow resonator, and oem mb muffler (sounds great, not much louder than stock but has a good growl to it)
The antenna does not operate (the car has aftermarket head unit installed, I imagine this has something to do with it. The sound quality of the sound systemis very nice, however. The stock head unit WAS and IS NOT included
The rear glass has delamination going down the driver side
The shifter is a mis-matched wood to the birds eye on the dash and console, it would probably be ideal to add a stock vinyl e500 shifter
Door inserts are previously repaired for cup holder holes (a very good job was done however, it is hardly noticeable.)
Two wheel bolts out of the original set are missing. These are NLA from benzand I have not found 2 yet, however Im sure it wouldnt be difficult to find apair of bolts on the forums or ebay if searched for enough
The car shows and drives really nicely, no rock chips on the front end, paint shines amazingly with the C-quart sealant applied, seats were treated with leatherique and are in really nice shape (no bolster wear.) I am located in Houston, Texas in the River Oaks/ Galleria area. I welcome PPIs on the car. If you feel I missed anything in the description, do not hesitate to ask. I am offering the car for 21k with the e55 monoblocks. My only reason for selling is I acquired a 1994 (last year) 1 owner with 78k miles. I have tons of pics of this car, any serious buyers send me a PM and I will exchange phone/ email information with you so I can provide more pictures and information.
Regards,
Chris
Love these cars - hope you find a TX buyer!
Curious though, what does this mean? "The stock head unit WAS and IS NOT included". Is the stock head unit included or not?
Exactly what Mpowered stated, sorry if that came off as confusing. Also, I am willing to trade up or down let me know what you have. Car, motorcycle, watch, it doesn't matter. I don't need 2 500e Mercedes sitting around, 1 is enough. Thanks!
Chris
I don't post much on this forum, but had to comment that this car is awesome. Wish I was in the market to pick it up, and it's local! One day......GLWS
