Thank you, Robert.

I'm aware of post w126 changes that happened, seeing as I do have a W202 C280 sedan. It is nothing like the W123 except that I find that it has beefy parts like the W123 has instead of go-cart parts like I find on friend's vehicles.

I honestly find that the c280 has enough power. While I'd love to have 400hp at this point I'm more than happy having just enough power to do a brake-stand (which the C280 will do). We have enough traffic here that my 300TD can out-run the pace of stop and go.

I'll see what the lady comes back with. She might want $12k for it, or she might want what she would get for a tax write-off.
