But having never purchased a used car, not a Merc, what should I look out for?

Settle in reply to @Velocio

I was told to look out for balance shaft issues as they can be expensive to repair, Mercedes where taken to court over it. You can check the engine code to see if the engine is within the serial numbers effected. Further info

Just buy my Merc its less than half the price, I really need to sell as I'm moving and losing my parking.

Its a CLK350 convertible so same engine and is very smooth.

Details here...
