Talking I think I just got a pretty good deal.

Just picked up a 1990 300D 2.5 Turbo for a whopping $700.00. 200K on the clock.

So what is wrong with it?

Looks like an awesome car. I'd love to have that exact one....black on black....602 turbo.....W124....that'd be a sweet High MPG commuter....I consider my 300SD a bit thirsty, it only averages about 25-27mpg usually...though I do have soft snow tires on it right now.

Yeah, I'd say you got a good deal; $700 car with an interior like that is fantastic. Congrats.

Did 90's have leather wrapped steering wheels and wood trim on the doors? {I guess it would appear so, but for some reason I thought that came later}
How is the rust situation? Working AC?
Any thoughts about wagons lately?
