Default 2003 mercedes c32.......?

3.2 supercharged v6 with 360bhp and around the 70000 ish sort of miles for around £5500 +.....would a car like this be expected to be a money pit /problem car for a weekend run around doing around/up to 200 miles a weekend?
most seem to have MB service historys with them. does anyone have any experience with these good or bad?

like this in the link but id be going for the estate version......

Keep away from main dealers and use a specialist, check for rust and you should be fine.

Make sure all elecs work as 03 was a bad year for merc elecs, check for rust around the wings and you should be fine. The torque converters can be weak around 100k but can be fixed.
