Probably the 80 300SD. Lost money on it, and it didn't really wow me. ACII system, surprise rust. Ran and drove great though. I took it on a 400 mile roundtrip run without a hitch.

I've never come across a 108 worth buying. Looked at lots of rusty and neglected ones.

I regret selling alot of them.

C36 was probably the biggest regret. I'll never find one that nice, sorted, and cheap for less money ever again. It had a new wiring harness, rebuilt head, new headliner, and a bunch of other stuff along with being in excellent cosmetic condition.

I miss the 300SEL as well. I had it extremely well sorted and loved the color combo and cosmetic condition.

The E300 I'd probably still have if the transmission didn't crap out. In anger I decided to sell it after fixing it, wiping my hands of old cars as daily drivers, and its been flawless for the next owner.

When I think about it, though, I wouldn't trade any for my new VW GTI. Its just so much fun, and I don't have to worry about problems and maintenance for many years.
