mint white 300TDT on ebay

It's mine guys...
Hate to see it go, I searched a long time to find this gem. But I'll just buy a nice wagon with a 5-speed for 1/4 of the price when I get back to Germany, ha!

I wonder how high it'll go. I paid 6 for it...

It's really beautiful as is.

But... I think it's in your best interest to replace the headlight doors with NEW ones and put in a stock radio. These items are cheap enough and stand out the most in your pictures.

if the harness is still intact you can put a nice alpine head unit in there that plays CDs and MP3s for under $125. using a wiring adapter and cutting no wires you can have it installed in under 15 minutes

My condolences and I hope you get a great price to ease your postpartum.

I'll definitely be interested in seeing what it goes for (just for fun) considering I have a white one with nearly perfect Palamino/brown leather interior and 147,000 miles.

I keep toying with the idea of getting an ex-service wagon like this and reproducing the SERVICE graphics on the side, would be a great nostalgia piece for me.

I have to agree with some of the above posts though, with the missing and incorrect parts it'll be tough to get much of a premium, even with the #22 head. It pains me to know how much the Mercedes TD market has softened in the past couple of years.

Best of luck, hope you set a new standard for prices (since I'm already buried in mine).

320K... wow, Mine just popped the 200K mark. and it's WAAAAY more MINT than that one. I gotta see what it goes for. (not that I'd EVER sell my babies)
it's already above what I paid for my gray one.

Fix those seat nets too! It'll increase the value by ten fold.

I agree

It's not mint. It's been very, very nicely prepped for sale.

But it's not a creampuff.

I will be interested to see what he has the reserve set at.

pretty mint to me... It's all in the eye of the beholder.
and I really can't be bothered fixing these little things, vacuuming the carpet like crazy and all that. I don't think there will be all that much difference. I paid 6, put some work and money in it and if I get 6.5 it's gone and otherwise it's storage. I'm in the US a lot anyway and I really like this car...

A car is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it.
