Thanks Tim - I appreciate the support - I have not posted a car for sale here in a long time and do not remember this being such a hostile place.

For those that do not know the M119 engine in the E500 124 cars is identical to the SL500 129 cars and with some minor differences in the S500 140 cars.

If what MB NA sells as a factory replacement long block for a 1994 E500 is not up to your personal standards I understand and can only wish you luck.

I really don't see the need for the negative commentary and conspiracy theories around here. If you aren't buying the car, your opinion doesn't really matter or bar much valus. He's just a man selling a car. It's a shame it isn't like YouTube where you can turn off comments.

Thanks...
