I think the market for nice 124s might be firming up - perhaps because people are becoming frustrated with the repairability of some of the newer cars. I see nice 124s in the $5k to $7k range selling fairly quickly. But there is a lot of junk out there - 80 or 90 percent of the cars are rough mechanically, cosmetically or both. It's nearly impossible to sell such a car and not prudent to buy one, at any price, given the small price difference for a nice one. A wholesaler told me the other day that rough older MBs are getting shipped overseas to places with lower priced labor, which makes sense, nobody here wants them and you can only part out so many cars.
