I just paid $3,500 for 1987 300E with under 100,000 miles on it. A little rough around the edges but mechanically sound. Have put 3500 miles on it in just 3 weeks and it runs like a top. I've driven 240D's for many years and a 1978 280CE. This is the only "newer" gas mercedes I have driven and I love it.
