85 300DT on eBay with 4 wheel ABS brakes

Was ABS braking system an option on this car?

According to a UK brochure I have for the 1984 300TD, ABS was available on the W123. Maybe it's a gray market car or, maybe the seller doesn't know squat...wouldn't be the first time on eBay.

wouldn't the ABS actuator be visable in the underhood shot?

If there was ABS, yes there would be an actuator for it underhood, and an "antilock" light for it in dash. The car clearly does not have ABS.

I cringe whenever I see one of those anachronous cell-phone cradles mounted on the center console.

Another "low miles" car offered by a dealer on EBay. Sure looks shiny but the guy couldn't afford the $10 to replace the hood star? Be afraid, be very afraid.

I like that they also are going to charge a set fee for various things including advertising... yeah I would want to pay for that.
