i have sold two 300e's with 200-215k on them for 1200. (both needed tires or little nitpicking things)
That's as far as i am taking one.

These cars are extremely undervalued, I think anything aside from a pristine w124 would be statistically a money pit--meaning over the next 10 years or so you'll spend much more than its worth. That being said, I would take my 300E over almost any new car I've been in and driven (obviously costing much more, not having depreciated) even though I've got a total of over $4k in it and could realistically sell it for half that. The glass half full version is that these are such a bargain for us nuts!  And the cost per mile factor is actually pretty low as well in comparison to newer more expensive cars since the initial investment is so low. Just my (somewhat biased) $0.02
