MB Manual on hard copy
Would someone please give me an idea of how much a 123 hard copy manual would be if I were to buy one on ebay or some other online source. I'm negotiating with a guy on a parts car, and he told me today that he has the shop manual on hard copy. Said it was a couple of inches thick. He also has a timing chain that was never installed, which seems to be just over $100 bucks new.
Thanks, Jimmy

I got an engine manual for $15 and a body manual for $35. This may be a gloat, I have seen them for much more.

If you are talking the original MB hardcopy manual, it consists of about 6 volumes. Have heard that they can run from $40 to $60 per volume. They do appear on e-Bay and sometimes come with your 20+ yr ol car. Good luck on your purchase.

123 shop manual
there is a shop manual on ebay now for $50. There are many others too. You specified hard copy-- but if you can use the cd version there are some manufacturers manual collections for $17.

Looks good so far
Bounced it off my concubinal apparatis and permission seemed to be conditionally granted (grin). As long as I don't get the death sickness again! I'll email you tomorrow with specifics.

missing manual?
Possibly for the automatic or is it already incorporated in your existing manuals? Thought had seen a separate manual somewhere but may have been in error. Do not own any hard manuals myself yet. The cd is really limited but maybe just me. The hayes type manual limited again but possibly slightly better than nothing. But what do I know?
 Thought about suggesting my wife give me some manuals for christmas but she thinks a hard time is more appropiate as am thinking of buying a couple of 240ds before christmas. (called living on the edge I think, must check it out with my therapist)

No there is a separate manual for the transmission however it is very hard to come by. You may have to consider a marriage therapist if you get those 240's.

BTW, if you think the ebay prices are high go and check this page: http://www.storesonline.com/site/573683/page/380270
Ebay will look like a bargain compared to them and there's no description indicating the condition.
