Yes, he has sold flood vehicles (Remember the 300Td with the water filled headlight, pictured with the same background?) but this one looks very nice. I didn't see any significant blemishes on the car.

Yes, this one looks nice. But if you read the description of the one with fish-bowls for headlights, it was just as nice, according to him.

I once had a fishbowl fog light on my '83 300D, it was caused by a small chip that allowed rain to go in, but never evaporated out. The H3 bulb still worked!

That is a nice write-up and I remember his always shooting pics with the boats in the background. He's got 100% + feedback, was he selling under a different moniker b4? I can't find fault with that listing, infact if I was selling a car I might be inclined to steal some of the text, SOME of it, because its a bit overdone IMHO.

He always has 100% feedback with only a few entries. Look at the transactions sometimes. He rotates usernames often, and uses new ones for small purchases or sales to get that feedback.
