Even if fully restored, would it be possible?? Oh......I can't help but wonder about what happened to the other engine.....

It's just a W126, no way It would sell for 35k

heated rear seat must be worth 32K........

I saw this too!!

I can't believe he would even think to sell at that price...I'd like to see what he lowers it to after nobody contacts him. 30K? Lol

Looks nice, but it's been veggie-molested. He's about an order of magnitude off on price.

How about a few more pictures before i pop in my credit card number?


Is it too much to list the mileage, especially with his asking price?

There must be something wrong with that SDL if it only gets 25mpg.

That tank isn't even secured in place.

I remember seeing a 560sel with 1,500 documented miles selling for that much. That's no typo...

Maybe....BUT....only two pictures, no mileage, KNOWN WVO conversion (type unknown) already modified with two tank system...no stated reason for new engine...no noted condition other than "completely restored"......AND as FI stated, only 25 MPG??? I get 27 on Bio on a bad day......with a heavy foot.....

might be a good car, but $35K....I don't think so....

Yeah, he's smoking something.

I was just noting that 35 grand was the selling price for the top 126 model in perfect condition, ridiculously low and well documented miles.

Thats about what a full resto will cost you, and thats about what a no mileage original car is worth.

But thats a greased hack job thats been for sale many times before, its worth one zero less.

I consider 25-26 the most mine is capable of.... Don't know of anybody else with a 603 in a 126 getting much better - if driven by a non-hypermiler.
