I had 293,000 on my '85 380SE with the odometer still clicking when I sold it... she started to have a faint knock, but I was still driving her everyday. lol.

I bought my '88 300SEL in 2007 with 153,000 on the odometer which broke shortly after. I estimate we are up to about 200,000 on it now. It has been my moms car since 2011 and she does not drive to much. We should have got that odometer fixed, but we didnt.

Good luck to the OP... I guess it depends on how much you like the car, but again only if it is solid. If is rusty, I would find a nicer one and perhaps use all you can off of your current car or just sell it.
