I'm not crazy about any of those wheels, but sure like the car. Nice color!

Thanks!

for some ungodly reason, this car ALWAYS looks better in person...


looks like I'm showing it tomorrow to a local peachparts owner.


I'm not in a hurry to sell, only willing to sell to a loving home.


just need to reinvest in the business a tad, and somethings got to give.


looks like once I get the E300 Diesel back from the body shop, it'll be getting driven daily.

Is the new buyer getting a crash course in detailing? I hope you never see it again, because I believe you'll be knowing how much cleaner you could get it.. It's a sickness, and not a bad one. Good luck with the sale, love the car.

I find that cars I end up selling at least semi locally, always come back to me now and then for a detail.


but I'm nice enough to give a walk through on techniques used to make each specific color look great, and clean the easiest

Hello. Its George Hannah Jr. Here. I have personally driven this 1987 Mercedes 300D. It is a great car. A very strong and solid performer. When I drove this for about 30 miles it had no leaks, no rattles no pops. It was a very strong and solid performer. With only 140k on this Diesel it is not even broken in yet. Hell my dads old 300SD had 170k on and the guy who has it now has well over 200k on it with no issues. NO ONE make cars like anymore and this is why someone should really jump on this classic car. Very classic and still turnes heads and can used a Daily Driver.

YES!!! Oh and to add to this(Matt & George to the Mercedes Dealer) We had one of our sales people drive this car. This person has sold Mercedes for many years now and she has said that Matts W124 was one of the nicest one they have seen in a long time. That right there is saying alot about how well this car has been taken care of and treated in its past.
