I had a nice experience last Friday night when going out to get some wine. I pulled up to the diesel pump and there was a early 20 something kid waiting for the diesel pump also. He went first and we struck up a conversation. He really loved the old benz, but had a for sale sign in the window. He was going out to California for an internship, and did not think the car would make it. It only had 150k on it, and if given a good going over would do fine. After we talked a while, he said he really had 2nd thoughts about selling. It was a very sound car.
