I decided to pass on looking at the original car I posted. We were too far apart on price. I don't want to waste anyone's time. I really need to decide what I want also. I don't know for sure if I want to go back into W123 land. I think if there's doubt, I shouldn't. There's just nothing that excites me for a car in the 3-5K range. Maybe an 05 E320. I know....diesel forum.
Thanks for the replies nonetheless.
