NO RESERVE EBAY AUCTION for my 95 E300D

Mercedes Benz E Class Base Sedan 4 Door | eBay

Just removed the reserve on this. So highest bid over current high bid ($1725) takes it away.

Auction ends Sunday night at 11:00 EST.

I got sniped but I'm almost glad since my wife was not very happy about it. Someone got a killer deal.

He'll be MUCH happier with this car than he would have been with the drive train from the parts yard...

Well, according to how the final couple minutes of bidding went - it didn't cost you but $50 over where it was bid as a high was, for a period of days. Apparently, no one wanted to outbid you.

Congratulations, and enjoy in good health!

The trick to ebay is decide how much you want yo pay for if, and bid that number at that VERY last second.


I'm going to play the "rack up as many miles as possible" game with this car. I drive a lot for work and so the odometer is liable to get hot. Since the tranny went kaput on the e320, I've needed a car to drive hard. The 04 burb is just too much of a gas hog.
