Maybe this has already been posted, but I thought you guys would enjoy it. The underbody is incredible. I'm sure that at least one member here will find a defect or two.

That's a very nice car. Good for her to find and win it. Only thing I can say is I would rather have R12 in the a/c for something that nice.... and fix the insulation on the a/c hose too!

That car is actually better than our 240D was when I bought it 3 years ago.

Wow!

If she bought it on Ebay, more than any of us would be willing to pay.

You ca tell he likes it, that car would be $10k plus here -

Yeah, the rear brakes on these cars are disc which is pretty incredible for the time period.

It would be interesting to see a price comparison with say a similar S124 diesel, quite a few gassers around with that sort of mileage/condition but yet to see diesel estate (wagon)
