What's a computer run? Anyone have a used one to donate to the save-that-450 cause?
 If had more than a parking space on the street, I'd go get it. Of course, I'd also have that cute W115 240D 4spd I saw last month that needed a brake caliper & a home for $400...  Man, I could really get into trouble if left un-checked.

Not a bad deal , alabbasi.
Add in some shipping & a tank of gas and, if you can believe the seller, you've got a $1200 driver. (Just how DO you kill a computer in 76k mi??) Exactly the kind of risk I used to take all the time when I had a garage. God I hate my life now... So dull w/o toys...

I suspect that it's running rich, it could be the computer or map sensor or injectors. I think the computer is the first place that people point at.
Replacement computers from parts places are around $1000. If it runs like crap, good luck trying to sell it for more then $500. If I get another D-Jet car, it will be an early SL (71, 72 or 73 with the small bumpers).

if i was in the area, I'd def pick it up, a computer of the M117 isnt anything given the overall look of the car. The only thing that isnt attractive about the 450's is the fuel consumption given todays prices at the pump.
