Can't shake the disease... New car hunt!!
With the scarcity of the W126 Euro 500SE, I find myself looking for another W126. I already own 2 380SEs, 1 300SD and a 560SEC for W126 chassis. I'm a fan of the short bodies hence the 300SE, Does anyone have a yes or no involving me buying this model? Anything serious to look out for besides the normal, accidents, chain work, and maintenance? Power adequate? Please do chime in, I have a choice of 3 being all of my first choice in color.. Black and Alto with Palomino or Gray interiors..
Thanks...

A W126 in any flavor is always a good car to buy. I don't think Mercedes made a bad one.
I'd love a 560SEC and 350SD next. Or maybe something that AMG worked on.
