Ebay add I'd love to see

F/S !98? MB 300D like new condition concidering the age. Get over 50 mpg and runs on anything you can find to pour in the tank(hail, it even runs on diesel if you can afford it) this Low milage car (498k) has been lovingly care for it whole life, and it shows, but like any car of this vintage, it's not perfect.
1)interior has a few rips(damn dog chased that coon around in there for 1/2 hr)
2)brakes need work, It doesn't bother me none, I just put it in neutral and head for a tree
3) grille cracked(see # 2)
4) minor scratches on roof from my brother trying to take a 25mph curve @ 90mph
5) runs a little rough, nothing a tuneup won't take care of.
6) 3 windows broke, but no problem, they didn't work anyway.
7) star on grille missing. well not really, bubba got it around his neck
8) will need tires soon but plenty of tread to get you home. I can still see where the tread used to be
9) horn broke, (watch for finger) as well tail lights, brake lights(brakes don't work anyway), head lights, and turn signals.
this car is ready to go, DRIVE ANYWHERE. With a little TLC this can be in showroom condition. Here's your chance to own a real classic.Don't let the milage scare you off, these cars have been known to go over 5 million miles. This one is just getting broke in.
I have tried to be honest in representing this car, but may missed a few things(like granny sideswiping it or that the molding is held on with duck tape) please keep in mind, this is a 20+yo car.

as long as you mention it gets high mileage and runs on vegoil/biodiesel you should get good bids on it.
