I am selling my '84 300D and thought I would advertise it here before I put it on ebay. This is a mechanically excellent daily driver. I have owned it for 3 years, put almost 40,000 miles on it, and have maintained it very well. Color is Champaign/Gold with a tan MB-tex interior. Interior is in very good condition and hasn't been smoked in.
Exterior paint is in nice condition, but there is rust in the rear quarter panels. This is the reason I'm selling the car. In order for it to pass Maryland inspection I would have to fix the rust, and I just don't have the time or inclination to do that. The car is originally from New York, and it is quite rust-free by NY standards. It is just better if the buyer check out the car and decide for him or herself the rust situation.
Otherwise, the car is in very good shape and is 100% reliable (again, it has been my daily driver for 3 years). In the last three years I have done lots of stuff like change all the fluids, install new radiator, rebuild entire a/c system, regularly change tranny fluid, regularly adjust valves, new battery... the list goes on. I never skimp on maintanence, and have a maintanence log documenting everything I've done. The only things that don't work are the cruise control, antenna, and right rear window.
I am looking for a very modest amount for the car. I had it on ebay about 9 months ago and the bidding went up to $1,250, so I'm thinking that's a reasonable amount to expect out of the car.
If anyone is intersted, email me at

Thanks.
