OK, $200 then.

Why would "asses at this apartment.....tow it away....that still runs and drives.?" -Ordinarily, it wouldn't make sense unless it looks like a wreck AND it's unlicensed OR not current Texas tags.......that said - it's prolly not a good idea w/o manager's written permission, IIWY...

I might give you $200 for it if you're interested? Pls post pics.

OK, I'll Up the offer to $250 - today only.

Not a good idea. Even if towed by mistake, you'll be out perhaps what you could get from the crusher for the towing.

Many apt. complexes do not allow strange(rs) cars on their property. We towed - 'em inside of 36 hours at our's.

Parking the car in front of random ppl's homes on public streets would get it towed inside 24 hours where I live too. FYI.

Is it just me, or has this thread just totally gotten off track?

I also wonder what happened to the other thread?

The guy was just kicking tires on the two different posed models when he posted this thread, he hadn't seen EITHER of them, and he was woefully disappointed at the one he did go see in person. I don't think he's interested in either of the cars now - as he stated.......

The best thread is the off-track thread.

Whoa whoa..Kickin tires is a bit harsh. I would have bought the 300d on the spot (same ad!!) if it wasn't falling apart ... the 300 CD is also almost 7 hours of a drive for me and I may still go up there....which by the way where is my thread for the CD??

The SE was bought as a parts car and it was mechanically in that condition. The engine has a cold starting issue and the front steering is hammered out. It is so bad that I have to keep it under 40MPH. I drove it to my fiancee's place on the back roads, so it should be OK for now. I'm in the process of parting the interior out and there isn't much left in the car.

Joe is right. Tags and all that crap were no good. It had a MA plate on the back with expired TX registration and inspection stickers. Now it just has the MA plate. They said it was leaking fluid as well but it was not. If anything, water was under it from the junk sprinkler system that does a better job of watering the parking lot than the grass.

They also nailed my new 300SD that I just brought home. The radiator blew on the way home, so I pulled it to have the tanks replaced and I left a drip pan under it. I'm just trying to be responsible here and not puke fluids all over the place. I had to take a day off work to run into Dallas to borrow a radiator from a friend so I could move the car to my workplace. I'm waiting on a 130-U title transfer form from the seller before I can apply for a new title. The SD is titled in FL.

This apartment complex also likes to sticker my daily driver 300SD that is all legit and has no problems. I'm not the only one, though. They sticker a lot of other cars, too. Somehow they missed my neighbor's Chevy that had out of state plates and expired registration for thee years! I think the apartment management is friendly with whomever they have tow vehicles.

There's a '78 300CD for sale up in Live Oak , FL ....If you don't know where that is you probably are not near it. I am in Boca Raton like 6.5 hours south and I had to look it up on the map to check where it is. North of Gainesville like 1.5 hours - west of Jacksonville also like 1.5 hours....


If someone is interested or near enough ( The Don) let me know I appreciate it.
