I went through a period that I wanted to sell my 1990 300E. I love the car but was fed up with the upkeep and hassle. Thanks to this forum I got all the kinks ironed out and the car is as close to right as I can get it. At that point I approached a Mercedes-savvy used car lot owner that I know about trading or selling it. His comment: "The worst thing you can do with any asset is to sell it right after you just put a lot of money in it. You need to drive some of your investment out of it before you sell it since you won't get out of it what you put in it anyway." Good advice. I'm keeping it now since it probably won't depreciate any more and any other car I buy will probably need work too.
