I am looking to buy my first MB, a 1998 C280 with 84k.  It is a very clean car and has only had one owner.  I do have a question about two things.

1- When taking it on a test drive the vehicle would vibrate heavily when at a stop, is this normal?

2-  Silly me I threw out all my cassette tapes at that is all the radio plays.  Can anyone suggest any options if I should purchase.

The price is $8950 but they have already started to come down from that.  Any and all input would be appreciated.

Is this a dealer price or a private sale?

you paid $8,900! That sounds like a fantastic deal. Sport edition? does it have heated seats?

It is not a Sport Edition.
yes, it does have heated seats and everything else.
