I drove a 230S auto once. It was over the summer. It had been sitting and would hardly stay running. It was slow, but it's carbs were so far out of wack it was disgusting. I would have it floored and it MIGHT take off from idle, or it would just stall. Then my friend would have to get out and cup his hand over the carb so I could maybe get it started again.
Thanks
David

P.S.
I got a response, he said there was some rust on the hood and small spots around the car, but is a small problem. I'm already starting to get pessimistic with this one. Now if it had the 4 spd. on the column...Isn't that one of the prettiest colors though?
