Is it hard to get Mercedes-Benz parts in NZ?
I’ve found a mercedes for sale that I really like and is a reasonable price.
But now my Mum is telling me that it’s hard to get parts for a Mercedes especially since we live in New Zealand they would have to be imported. And that it would just end up being a money-pit even though its a good price to start with. Is this true?
The car is a mercedes-Benz E190 1992, any other information I should know about this car would be appreciated if theres someone out there that knows their stuff =]
thanks.
Well as i know that NZ is an island and is far apart from the continent. I would reckon that finding part for such an old model like urs would be an issue. U either have to import it or find an other alternative replacement such as closer cousin of ur e190 would be the w124 series. What i can say is drive carefull and don’t get a car accident especiall the frontal and the rear as u would be hard time to find a replacement for that parts.

Actually there is quite a few parts available in NZ for these cars ,but dont buy it ,the E190 is not the best of mercs to buy, unless it is and has been really looked after,and serviced always,For the same price you are paying for this merc,you could buy a very nice jap import that would be a better choice as NZ is about the best place to buy quility japanese import anywhere in the world,and cheap.
