I doubt they have appreciated that much since then
Can't you at least tighten the shock absorber? Or do you mean loose as in it is spent (no gas left in it)?

The exterior is in excellent condition, it was repainted black back in 2005 and being in a family with a detailer it's been kept up very well. Yes I do plan on getting the shock tightend and I was planning on fixing the axles, my mechanic said 90$ for each axle and he'd install them free. I would like to fix the door locks soon also if I don't get any bites right away. I always thought even 305,000 miles wasn't thaaaat much for a w123 Diesel... or are we just blowing smoke when we say they can go a million miles?

If anything, the head gasket is something for the next owner, I'd rather spend that money on the DeLorean

. We parked it at a family-friends restraunt and I drove it home a few hours ago, for what it does have wrong with it, it's a damn good car.
It's so smooth, quiet and like I said runs damn good for 305,000 miles. I was just cruising it back home. It's an awesome car and has never left me stranded. It also gets awesome mileage compared to the 300D turbo... Most of us know this already though
