I'd think the fellow would at least clean the oil off the valve cover anyways!

Oh well, good luck to him! Just keeps the price of ours high if he gets anywhere near it.


OOPS! Didn't realize there already was a thread on this! Sorry guys for taking up space!

Humm.... Low hydraulic oil and high green coolant....

Mine looks every bit that nice, just with 240k miles. But with my rebuilt trans, and awesome -6 F starting ability compression in mine, I think I can see maybe a 2k premium for his low mileage. Anyone want to give me $16k for my 300?

This guy wants $30K for this one.....

"The article explains that in 1998 the car was caught in a freak El Nino flood, and the insurance company had the engine replaced by Mercedes Benz, at that time."

It's a FLOOD CAR and he simply forgot to mention that?

Someone responded with this: (LOL)
"I would like to sell my 1984 300D for the totaly reasonable price of $20,000. I recently added a casset adapter so I you can play your I-Pod through the Becker 4 speaker system ($12 upgrade)... Any Takers? Is four times the kelly blue book value too high?"

Not trying to defend this guy or anything but that hydraulic oil level would correspond with right between the marks on the dipstick, and whats wrong with green coolant?

Try a search for green coolant.

Sure, I'd take it, too. The hell if I'd pay 30 grand for it, though.

I did some figuring.....
1984 190D 5-speed (probably just as rare and better made) - $22,000
1984 190D 5-speed (not as nice as first)- $12,000
1997 E300D - (ok, not as big as a 350, but less likely to bend a rod) -$15,000
1980 300TD - (holds more stuff, must be at least worth something) - $10,000
1983 240D - (?, must have some redeeming value) - $7,000

By my calculations, I have $66,000 worth of Mercedes in the driveway. Cool! I think I'll sell 'em and buy some Chinese stocks.

No of course not, they know that the 350 just bends
its rods and cost you big bucks to fix.
