By chance I saw a used car lot that had 4 old mercedes.
* w116 450SEL
* w123 300D
* w123 240D
* w126 (no model badge)... but not a 560, and was a 2nd gen.
All 4 looked like **** and were rusty. Especially the 450SEL. The w126 had a crappy respray. The 240D had cracked paint that was chipping on the hood. The 300D looked sub-par, but better than the rest. The dealership was closed, but I did look at the cars from a visual perspective. There was no price on any except for the 450SEL which was at $2000. I am going to say the w123's were probably $2500-3000. I can't imagine what fool would pay that much for a car like that. For that price you can get a decent Honda from the early 90's that would be in way better shape.
