Pretty overpriced in my opinion but nevertheless, a beautiful w123 in cypress green.
But just for fun what do you guys think, is this a real Euro import or is it a USA spec 240d with Euro bumpers. I see many indications that lead me to believe its a USA spec 240d. No vacuum headlight adjustment switch, no cloth interior, and of course the two USA bumper holes in the rear quarter panels. What else can you guys detect?

The holes could have been for the mounts for full wrap around bumpers without the rubber boot, although being an '83, I believe all the Euro bumpers had the rubber boots by then. It is possible that the guy (or someone previous) traded interiors. The cloth interior would have been worth a lot more than the MB Tex. The only real way to know is to get the VIN, and see what it was equipped with from the factory.
