Yeah I agree, that 240 is a real problem and way over priced for the amount of rust.
We got our 80 240D for free from the original owner. they were going to trade it in, and told her it would end up at PNP, and a month later they gave it to us, because I have several other MB`s. told her I love the cars and worship the ground they sit on etc.... 
Have had the car 2 1/2 yrs, and it is probably up to $2000 so far fixing little things and so on.

A free car may not be worth the expense of patching it back together, or it may be, depending on it's condition and need of expense, or if there's rust present. So, you've got a car you might be out a total of $4K - for $2K.......so far.
The point is - these cars aren't free from expense, even if they're gotten for free. The crusher is always there for a $500 bailout. On a free car, that's not a bad return if worse comes to worst.
