Thank goodness, no. The fellow had been given a 10k estimate to do the head gasket from the dealer in Oakland that always serviced the car for him. But after agreeing to sell the car, he changed his mind abruptly and said he would fix it himself; that was just before I could send a nephew to it to eyeball the car and give him a deposit. 2 weeks later he changed his mind again and asked me to take it and then quickly sold it to somebody else entirely; again before my nephew could get there and give him the deposit.

So I bought a 280sel 4.5 instead. To me, it's a much better car for looks, style, mechanicals.
