Great looking car. I'll be in the market for another vehicle by the end of the year. I'd love to fall into a sweet deal like you did...son is going to need a car.
Well, he wants a truck, but I'd rather see him have a car, first.

That car's gonna be worth a lot on scrap day per #. A true ocean liner of a monster. The Princess Diana special!

Scrap isn't worth what it used to be. In February, I scrapped two 250C coupes that had been in my field and got $9.5/100lb. Last week, I scrapped a pair of W123s, and only netted $5.5/100lb..... I suspect the slowdown in Chinese demand for scrap has killed the price. Jim

That's a great find.
Nothing cruises down the highway like a good running W140 car, especially with the V8. |

They're just vacuum gauges, so at idle, yeah they would peg the high end of the gauge.

OK, but if the car is not even moving, how can it be getting any MILES/G?

When you consider its a vacuum gauge, not really a MPG gauge, it makes alot more sense.

So I spent a little bit on eBay for a used gray leather seat cover (original leather in good shape) and center console lid/arm rest, since this is all that was needed to make the interior mint. It's really hard to spend money on a car that sold for peanuts, but this one deserves it.
If I decide to paint the front and rear bumpers due to normal scrapes and the metal strip below the trunk, PDR a few dings, it could pass for a 27,000 mile example.
