Anyone in Wilmington, NC area willing to look at car?

[cscmc1]

Are there any mercedesshop members in the Wilmington, NC area willing to look at an 84 190D for me to purchase as a winter beater? It's a $500 car with 224K miles on it; i'd be willing to come out from IL and fetch it if I had an unbiased opinion that there is nothing obviously wrong with it.

Many thanks!

Where is the car? I'm about 45 minutes south of Wilmington.

Thanks for the offer, Len; it's a $500 winter beater 190D, so I'd hate to have you drive all the way into Wilmington just to look at a $500 car. Plus, I'm not sure I'd want to try driving a $500 190D back to IL the more that I think about it. Who knows whether it would even start in an IL winter! I wish it were at a dealer nearby; I'd buy it just to learn more about that particular model.

Thanks,

Chris
