just curious if they're as rare as i've never actually seen one in person before.
How much do u guys normally give for one lets say 200K miles in "running" condition ... fair or good condition

WOW. $9400 for a 86 300SDL. I bought 3 x 87 with lot of changes left over.

That one has been on Auto Trader for a while and probably will remain so at that price.

I know where two are in the Memphis area. Both need Palamino front seats.......now who would have a set of those?

And now, you know why I bought this:

Let me know if you have an exterior preference.

I think they are one of the best versions of the W126 that was made. Even after mine soaked me for over $15k in repairs I still want another.

Yep - that's a really nice example, but the price of admission is tough to overcome.

I'd love a nice example 300SDL...I looked at one before buying my 300D, but it was beat. Nice older cars are sometimes hard to come by in the rust belt.

Maybe my next ride will be one.

Not to hijack the OP's thread, Hattie, but I just have to repeat myself.

Okay, I'm not repeating myself anymore. Scratched record is in the trash can.
