Is there a hole in the driver's side front wing / fender just under the trim or do I need to clean my lap top screen again?

Way out of my price range for a BioD car, but I drolled in this one last night for a while... it looks like a promo shoot the car is so clean!

Ebay item # 110690201262

This one will hit 60-65% of new retail, which is amazing!

The winning bid was $4995 on the 300cd . Wingas ,that ebay 300sd is cherry ,the first photos are the brocheres though,you have to scroll to the bottom of the posting to see the real car ,kind of misleading but still the car is the lowest mileage MB ive ever seen, 3660 miles and still in the family.

The car has wrong wheels on it, click on the link they posted below. For something that is "100% brand new" and original, they didn't keep the right wheels on it?? And there is something seriously wrong with those pictures, very odd distortion

It's also the incorrect speedometer. That 120 mph speedometer belongs to a 1983 model year vehicle. The 1982 vehicles came with a 85 mph speedo.

So I wouldn't trust the mileage on it.

I do not think it's distortion. They look like promo pictures from MB to me. If you look at the 4th picture (the one of the front seats) it does not look like you can take that picture with out taking the door off the car. The 8th picture down is the front of the actual catalog. I don't know who bid on the car but they are bidding on a car without even seeing a picture of the real car.

At least that is my take on it.
