My W140 came out or Bayone NJ last year. The guy I purchased it from had the tranny rebuilt at about 260K miles and the cyl. head replaced at about 250K miles.
I fixed the AC when I got the car along with a few minor problems.
This thing runs and drives PERFECT now . No noises, squeeks, vibrations , rattles or anything. It performs as well as it did when it left the showroom.
I reconditioned a couple of bad spots on the leather and re-painted the nose to get rid of the stone chips. The car is pearl black with parchment interior and now looks like new.

I am so spoiled now I put my 126 Diesel up for sale and am now using the 140 as a dailey driver.
