Its like every now and then, an exceptional car is created at the factory..... Also, very rare to see the combination of 230 engine with standard shift w123 body style in the USA.

If that car had service records from date of delivery - it would be incredibly valuable.

Shipping costs to Holland?? On the dopey "bigger and newer is better" American market, this veteran Benz may draw less than $400 on account of its age and mileage.

Somebody will get an excellent deal..... assuming we can believe the ebay description.
