Isnt is strange how on some models it varies widely from car to car? Or... it sounds like she should have bought an S430, rather than a S500.
OH, BTW - I talked to the guy with the local 89' 300SE. He said it had a new accumulator for the A/C, which was about $1000 @ our local Mercedes dealer. Tranny shifts fine, engine works fine- no leaks or oil burning. He said it did have a slight oil leak at the front top of the engine, but was unsure of the source. I am guessing valve cover gasket.
No trade- he wants to sell outright for $2600, which seems fair. It has 169K. Inside and out in EC.

The happy owners don't complain online.
