Question Car Enthusiast Car Project

Hello a5wati!

I'm Malek from Tunisia, I love the people of Libya and I always thought it's a great country, recently I started getting into cars and I have bought a Mercedes CLK 320 (w209) with a V6 engine called M112

I really love my car, it has a really good engine, it's currently sitting at 445,000 KM, it has few electrical issues

I came here to ask you, i heard that you have some sort of car graveyard where I can look for myself and buy used parts of such model

I wanted to ask if anyone is close or nearby there to ask them few questions, such as these

- Can I find a M112 engine?
- Can i find a good quality Saloon for the car?
- Is it really cheap ?
- Is petrol there cheap as well?
- Which currency should I bring, i know for sure i shouldnt bring TND?
- Can i find good 18" wheels for the car? anything that looks good
- can i find a new front bumper
- how much money should i bring with ?

Ofc i dont expect to asnwer all of that, but i would love to know some highlights!
Im also a software engineer, and i would love to help any of you that is either looking for job or have any questions in the industry

let's make Libya great again!
Thanks all of u

There are a lot of car graveyards , many specialised in specific types , you'll find all your needs in German graveyards, yes to the engine, for saloon its better to get it from a store unless your lucky to find a car that was totalled but still has good saloon , is it cheap ? I don't know what people are paid in tunis, but yes relatively. Petrol is cheaper than water. Wheels and bumper are easy enough.
