Too bad it is that MB YELLOW!

Seriously, what a find...like being sprung from a time capsule. He's asking a lot for it, but where would you find another? Anyone want to start a W123 museum?

convincing photos but not enough to get me to drop 20 grand wo a close look and a drive. even if it all checks out i am not sure if it is worth that much.... very nice look ing car though... i think the maple yellow is a very nice elegant color... although if you look in my closet you will find about seven shirts that color... the ladies at the dry cleaner call me the yellow shirt guy.

I would be very worried about the seals hardening after sitting for 24 years. That engine may leak a whole lot of oil after no time.

He screwed up, big time.

I'll bet you can buy it at the opening price of $14,400.

Very few people will open the bidding at this number. He should have started at $1.00 and put a reserve on it.

For $14,400., it's probably worth it if you intend to keep it as a museum piece.

We've seen some 300D machines go for this price with 50K on the clock.

Man is that ride clean. It looks to be in really god condition although like stated i might be worried about the seals and whatnot see its it still keep water and such out. as well as engine seals. But that interior man o man i wish my interior was still that clean. engine compartment looks pretty clean as well. Kind of like my brothers 300d euro spec with a 4 speed. that man will take a good 5 hours washing cleaning waxing his car. Back to the issue at hand i think he is asking toom uch for it though, and i would have to ask why he garaged it for soo long (hmmm). no dobuts it would be a nice start out car for a new driver but too little car for me i need my extra cylender (i am a big dude and usually lead foot...i need the power)

That car would require a personal inspection along with a mechanics PPI...before it would be worth anything like that...true its possible its as advertised but at those prices only a fool would assume it was.

Fascinating.

It would be a fun weekend car. How many miles are on it? I didn't see that in the add maybe I'm blind. He probably will get $15k+/- for it.

Insane car, putting miles on it would only decrease its value.

Not sure you could import that into the US without a big hassle. If I win the lottery, I would buy that in a heartbeat.
