What I find droll is that on a couple of occasions I have seen a Mercedes on E-Bay advertised as low mileage, with under 100K, and there on the grille is a 250K badge, which denotes 156,250 miles. In one case the car was being peddled by a dealer that apparently was unable to count cylinders, as it was a 300D W123 and he claimed it had six. There were only five injector tubes, however.
