FS: 1985 300D Turbo Diesel, SoCal, $7000 obo

I recently acquired this car, but after driving it about 400 miles...I just don't feel that it's the right car for me...I'm selling this and my W126 to buy a W140, which is what I really want.

This 300D is in better shape than probably 90% of the 300D's still on the road...

The paint is original and is near perfect, save for a couple small scratches, Classic white. 118k original miles. The interior is in great shape, the seats are almost perfect, I say almost because there is a small wear mark on the driver's bolster (nitpicking here), the dashboard is also perfect, aside from a small crack near the windshield that isn't noticeable at all. AC works perfectly, as does the heater, vacuum door locks work perfectly as does the antenna. Tires have lots of tread left. No fluid leaks of any kind. The only thing that is defunct is the cruise control.

I recently replaced a few parts, and have the receipts to prove it. New expansion tank, voltage regulator, battery, shifter bushings, right rear axle.

Here are some pictures. If anyone has any questions, feel free to pm me here, or give me a call at (562)965-5917.

How much did you pay for her?

You shouldn't have any problem selling for close to the asking price locally. Great find. Good luck.
