Pics are of my 2000 MB CLK 430 Convertible with 101k miles. I bought it with 98k. There were 4 oil changes listed on Carfax. There were large periods of time when the only listings were tag renewal. I realize that Carfax is mainly a marketing tool. Valve cover gaskets were seeping oil but no dripping. It also had the original spark plugs in it. Had the gaskets and plugs replaced by a MB only indy. I asked them to take pics since I don't have much of a history on this car. I was blown away at how clean it was. I was expecting at least a lot of varnish. Can't say enough about that 229.5 motor oil. MB has been using it over 20yrs and I can see why.
