£650 Puma, it has an MoT, rear arches and... a mismatched passenger door. Only 60k miles tho. 

You might stumble across a door the right colour I suppose. You'll also need to do the rear beam bushes which is a pig of a job. 

It's in Winsome Green, wherever that is.

It's a particularly rough part of Birmingham mostly known for its prison!

If at first you don't succeed, double the price, that's why they call me Terry Tibbs.

Don't these have some weird braking system, where Merc only allow a number of brake pedal pushes (in the cars lifetime) before it triggers a warning light on the dash. 

Other than that (and rust as you say) think they are fairly solid cars.

The brake by wire Mercedes Sensotronic system . They did discontinue it on the E class after 2 recalls so may or may not have it depending on year of the car 

EDIT.. Just seen its 2004 so will have it

Im sure there are companies now that can refurbish the Mercedes SBC Pumps and reset the counter so SBC isn’t the massive headache it once was

When I was toying with selling my Mondeo I emailed them about it, never heard back, not even a 'fuck-off it's shit' which annoyed me.

That rear wheel seems to be on the squif?

They were always quite inset into the body but IIRC they did that German car weird camber thing at the back. 

Either that or the bushes are fucked m9.
