I can blow smoke up your rear end all day, like most members did here, but it is not going to help you to sell the car. On the other hand you only need one sucker comes along to suck it up at your price.

Good luck with your sale.

I am aware of that - appreciate the perspective.

I believe the positive comments from the fellow members are due to the fact that to see an 560SEL in this condition/mileage is a treat for any MB enthusiast

On the price - serious and reasonable offers will be considered as I would like it to go to a good home and that is of greater significance to me than the money I get for it.

Thank you.

Nice car! One suggestion on the picture showing the miles - I would try to take a picture without the last digits of the odo and trip partly turned like that. At least on the 124, they have a tendency to do that when they aren't working correctly.

Thanks again for the positive feedback.

Absolutely everything works - including the odometer.

Great looking car
As to the comments , it’s amazing what some people like to chime in on
A car is worth what someone is willing to pay, if you’re not willing to pay move on and keep your opinions to yourself. IMO
Everyone of my 124 odometers has failed at the 123k mark, so predictable that as my my newest car passed 123875 it failed on the way to the shop to have it preemptive restoration on it
I would be a great home for this car, however, I might be living by myself if I got it ... wife thinks I have a car problem
Perhaps.....

Take it to Cars and Bids or Bring A Trailer. While I question whether either venue would support your asking price, it would sell well in either one, most likely more on BaT. This is definitely not the place for high dollar cars - it's a totally different market.

Nice car, GLWS.

I appreciate the feedback and suggestions.

The car has been sold.

This is a for sale post by me of my car - not an opinion post of what you think the car is worth - does not hurt my feelings but is not a constructive comment.

I am well versed in the market and know what is out there and what this car is - if someone can do better by all means also you do not have to buy it.

If anyone wants to criticize the car, price or me feel free to pm me will be happy to respond and factor your opinion in if constructive.

I ask that if you choose to comment on this tread please keep it positive - thank you.

It's a very nice car. Well maintained.
