Hello,

I came across a nice 1983 300d in Manilla Beige with a polomino interior 211,000 miles. The current owner is the second owner and has ownerd since 2009 and put 32,000 miles on it since he has owned it.

He has done pretty extensive maintenance to it, and seems like the type of guy who would get something fixed if his indy reccomended it.

Here is a list of things that he has done since he has owned it:

Oil changed with Amsoil 20w- 50 every 3k, replace filter with either Mann or Wix
Fuel filter changed every 5K , both primary and secondary changed with Mann, still have a few extras they will be yours


7-10, New MB Rims bought from "Adsit Company" Have the originals will put in the trunk if you want them
7-10, New Michelin Harmony Tires
7-10, New MB Key, rekeyed driver door to match factory ignition- original owner used a brass key and the lock needed to be rebuilt. Car now has two steel MB keys
7-10, Left and Right drive axles replaced
7-10, Carrier Bearing replaced on drive shaft
10-10,Flush transmission and replace oil and filter

10-10, control arms, control arm bushings, center bushing,tie rod ends, alignment
11-10, Replaced battery tray frame and battery with a Bosch battery
11-10, Replaced all belts

1-11, Flushed brake fluid replaced with Amsoil
2-11, Windshield and rear glass removed and re-installed with new gaskets
3-11, Replaced diesel primer pump
4-11, new brakes all the way around rotors and pads, front has cross drilled Brembo rotors
4-11, New radiator and coolant related hoses, coolant flushed
5-11, Replaced Air compressor and A/C pressure switch, new freon
6-11, air box bracket replaced
8-11, new glow plug relay with all new Bosch glow plugs

The drivers door below the middle trim piece has been repainted and doesn't quite match, its close but you can tell. I think I could have it redone relatively inexepnsively.

I am trying to come up with a fair price for the car because he does not know what he wants for it. I don't want to insult him, but I don't want to pay too much either. What do you guys think a fair price is?
