hi all,
im toying with the idea of purchasing a crossfire. I think that they are a bit like "marmite" however i love the look of them. My question is are there any common faults i should be looking for? I just seen on the american website of talks about the car stalling at high speeds which is worrying
any advice would be appreciated

 

Ive never heard of anyones crossfire stalling at any kind of speed. Thats news to me!

 

news to me as well, tried and trusted mercedes oily bits, got their little niggles like any other car but nothing that cant be fixed especially with all the help on this forum and the mercedes forum, only possible downside is they are written off by insurance companies fairly easily due to the cost and availiability of body panels, but they are a great car for the money especially the srt, just go for it and enjoy...where are you based by the way...chris

 

thanks for the replies. im based in devon. the one im looking at i think i might be able to get it for a bargain. however, the guy who is selling it has just informed me that it has had some very light accident damage but has been repaired and you would never know etc etc
hmmm descisions

 

Ask him if you can see the estimate for the damage or the invoice for the repairs. That's one way of seeing damage after its been repaired. If I can help, pm me.

Cheers
Jon

 

I have just bought a SRT6 so my other Crossfire is up for sale, a good entry point car at a very cheap price

 

now that is quick service....buy one from a trusted forum member....too many out there to take a chance on a damaged one...good luck

 

Did you buy one in the end?
