"Fluids checked regularly" On the ground after you pull away? :D

It's probably in mechanically fine shape and no rust!

93 300SD 3.0 - comatose

"300,000 miles with at least another couple thousand to go"

a couple three thousand?????

It looks like a real war veteran.
 
Insurance companies call cars like that a "driveable total loss"

The advertisement doesn't say what model year the car is, but all things considered, it doesn't matter, really.

The really good thing about driving a car like that is that "NO ONE" will EVER dare argue over the right of way when you come barrelling along in a car like that:D

It's a very liberating feeling to drive one of those.

No wonder they were checking the fluids.:D

What a POS. Be interesting to call and talk to the guy. I'd like to know where the dents in the drivers door were acquired.:D

Cheers,

Bill

You're right Jim B. I'd park in the closest non-handicapped spot if I had that car. Reminds me of Uncle Buck's car. Hilarious.

With an exterior like that, I bet the interior is gorgeous. :rolleyes: Hey, you can't judge a book by its cover..........

but in this case, I think we can take a few hints. :D

If you had to, then do it like they do in Peru. Just use house paint. (really, that is what they use down there!!!!)

Applied with a very large paintbrush, broadside on.:D

That thing makes my SD look mint!:D


$900? Its ready for the junk yard.

At least they are honest, I'm sure it hasn't seen an oil change in a long, long time. But its probably ok because it leaks and burns so much.:D

This car's photos should be saved in our vaults.:rolleyes:
This has got to be the worst looking 300SD I've ever seen that still runs and drives.:smhair:

LOL, no way down the streets. Just tint the glass, fix the A/C, adjust valves, I bet that motor will go! :D No worries about it being stolen, door dents, etc. :D
