Maybe it had the rod bending issue fixed by MB since it is now a "1m" mile engine. Pretty clever putting that original MB sales photo in the ad too.

And the price. What is that car really worth? $5K?

Still it is a beautiful car.

Looks like two different vehicles in the photographs. The one for sale is most likely the one that looks like rust at the bottom of the rear doors.
The one not for sale (to fool you) has a different color body cladding, yellow corner lights etc.
Then for sale is more than likely a 3k tops IMHO. Was there a 1990 300SDL?
I thought they offered a 300SDL through 1987 then back as a 1991, I could be wrong.
The last photograph also looks like an advertisement piece, stolen/borrowed.
