There are, however, several W140s for sale at the moment with low miles (actually kms here!) in really nice condition for about 10,000 euros. Quite a lot of car for the money...
I see you love to take things apart and see how they work. In all honesty if you take apart a W140 you will appreciate the threepointed star marque.

Its put together like nothing else. That is why when you are wafting along in it at over 200 km/h the cabin is so silent that you can easily hear your inner voice. Makes up for "I honestly didnt know how fast I was going officer" - its true.
