My 1989 300te has 270,000 miles on it. The interior is starting to smell like anti freeze, the cam has one damaged lobe and ticks, ticks, ticks, front seal is leaking. The rear quarter panel needs it's paint refreshed (I guess the previous owner had it painted, poorly, and now the clear has failed).
I have already in the past four years put in: fnt shocks, rear accumulators, water pump, hatch shocks, radiator, heater blower fan.
I think it's time to say good-bye to an old friend. I just don't see where / how I can justify putting thousands into my old 300te. Maybe my money is best served in a newer model 210. Hmmmmm....
