Re: dealer in kingsport
Thanks for the information McDiesel. I am familiar with that dealer and have visited their website several times before. I have even recommended them to others here looking for a Mercedes in the Tennessee area. I have also heard that they have an excellent service department. I had actually even planned on taking a 1983 300SD that I was considering buying last year to them and have it inspected. I have also driven by there many times over the years, as I am in Bristol, TN, which is only about 20 miles from Kingsport, TN and occasionally have to go to Kingsport. The closest way to Kingsport from Bristol is HWY. 11W, which is the highway that they are located on. I e-mailed them a couple of years ago and in the reply I was told that they do not deal in older Mercedes and if I wanted a "lower priced, older" Mercedes that I should go to a junk yard. I was assuming that they also sold older Mercedes- or some of the higher mile trade-ins. I do not think all of the old Mercedes are junk and think a nice one can be bought for less than $4000-5000. Also, I would be using it as a work car and there are a lot of cars in the parking lot at work. I do not want to buy a new car, or extremely nice Mercedes, just to get door dings. I actually like the styling better on the older 1980s Mercedes cars, better than the 90s to 2003s. I have contacted a salesman at the local Mercedes dealership in Kingsport and they have some older Mercedes that I may be interested in. Thanks again for the replies.

Thanks, but I live in Tennessee and Conneticut would be way to far for me to have it shipped. Probably $1000.+ just for that. The car would have to be priced pretty cheap. I would like to find something more local in the North Carolina, Tennessee, or Virginia area. Thanks again however.
