FleaBay '95 E300D
#120168145519
I know this car, friend of the family just sold it a couple months ago. I recognize the "new" stereo (which is nearly 10yrs old), plus a few other tell-tale signs unique to the car. The eBay ad is disingenuous to say the least..."The only rust on the vehicle is the result of rock chips (please see pictures) and things of that nature." Yeah, right. I see he painted over the cancer on the rear fenders. Kudos to the photographer though, someone has real talent hiding the many imperfections. Also, I see they're advertising it on Craigslist, so beware. I do know that she's a reliable beast, but if you pay more than $4.5k you got hosed. And that's if he actually replaced what he claimed. I do know the rear shocks and rear rotors were recently replaced as I helped w/ that one weekend.

Full of GREEN coolant as well. Plus, how can the oil guage be pegged at 3 bar, and the engine not running? Or, maybe the tach is now working?

Same wording for the ads too... shameful. Makes me think the new buyer got screwed, and is just trying to pass it along. Caveat Emptor, and then some.

Yeah but look at his feedback! Who would bid on something from an account with such poor feedback?
