Did you make a mistake and mean 20,000 OBO?
2,000 seems like an incredible deal.

Someday, we're going to look back at all these missed opportunites. I've got a 71 W114 250C and the cost of rebuilding the head likely exceeds the value of the car. That's ok, I'm not going to sell it... It's amazing what you can buy decent W108 and W114 cars for. Other than the W111 convertibles, and to a certain extent the similar coupes, 60s and 70s MBs are duds on the market right now. SLs and 600s excepted, of course. Also, the cost of replacing those leather seats seats is significant, and does a lot to depress the price. Love the W108. Wish I had the time and room for one. Jim

When was it repainted? Love that white steering wheel. Is it original?

Oh my!! This car is beautiful. Someone needs to step up. $2000 is 1 level above stealing it.

It does look like a nice honest car. The leather is wonderful but when it goes it goes.
My 82 coupe's leather is about like that.
