A W115 220 Diesel automatic is probably the slowest Mercedes Benz out there that is contemporary.

Slow, I'm sure...but it was nice to see a car of that age with sheets on the seats, and carpet remnants on the floor still. The guy claims that no show has touched the factory carpet since he bought the car and now butt has sat in the seats without the seats being covered first.
The paint was a bit dead, and he said that he was taking it in next month for a paint job.
He said that his kids have shown no interest in the car, so I gave him my name and number in case he ever decides to sell it.
