seller says 603 engine recently had valve adjustment
My querry to this seller:
"What do you mean when you say The valves have also been recently adjusted ... crucial for good diesel performance? The valves in this car CANNOT BE ADJUSTED! Whoever told you that doesn't know anything about this model!" see it for yourself: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1987-Mercedes-300D-diesel-only-108k-miles-MINT_W0QQitemZ4607121398QQcategoryZ6330QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

Yep.....another genius.
Looks like a fine vehicle, however. One of the better looking W124's out there! |

Optimistic view:
recent valve adjustment = engine started That's always a Good Thing. Wonder if the engine Recently Rebuilt (whatever that means...) |

My SDL is the same color combo, black with a maroon interior. I like it, not the first car I've owned with a maroon interior.
Anything is better than Brown... er... Brazil.

and on the note of the ugly colored interior, whats up with the red interior and the beige headliner and handles? Is that a normal MB thing in the W124?(considering my experience is with a W123, and my brothers W126)

Exactly! Plus all the weird options on mine, I dig it! Just wish they had SLS on them.

Yeah, that is factory. Some of them had tri-colored interiors.
Nonetheless, I think it is still in awesome conditions. Quote:

It looks like a nice 300D though, typical ebay flipper. He probably picked the car up local real cheap and doesn't know anything about it. He probably has a generic add and just changes the pics and a few sentences.
He is nuts asking $11k for it. For that kind of money I could get a 1997-98 E320 with less miles.
