Two things would concern me about that car. One, it is a Connecticut car that is showing some rust. On a W123 that means there is bound to be more rust hidden somewhere.
Two, it is a non-turbo engine with an autobox. LarryBible posted about this a long time ago, saying the extra cylinder makes it so much harder to work on, and you give up the 25% extra torque to the transmission.
There's a white Euro 300D that I'm keeping my eye on here. Pristine Florida car with manual transmission. Now that's the ticket!
