W201 gassers with manual transmissions,
don't exactly grow on trees, either.

For the price you are thinking of paying, it is not much of a gamble either

But get all the books records and history you can. Neglected ones can cost a lot to fix....

Good luck if you really do pull the trigger. It really looks good in that color with those wheels
