Here ya go....

The W123 sedan) the dealer car/the production end model/the left handle/vehicle inspection 2 year it is attached,/actual travelling 37200km/

Wrapping color: Light/write ivory/interior color: Camel Brown/power steering/power window/air conditioner/stereo/genuine same color cap wheel/ogre type headrest/tire: Continental 9 minute mountain records large number (complete [yanase] service)/spare key /1 owner/dealer car


The outrageous fine arts was discovered!

1 owners who exceed this individual, any best things of complete interior storage searching the Japanese wherever, coming out, are thought that it does not start!

With 1 owners, garage storage and actual travelling 3.7 ten thousand km complete [yanase] service (the several as many as 20 or more of records! ) It started excavating W123 best ones!


The ivory whose popularity is high with the joke, furthermore from debut it is not adopted it is W 123,280 E of ogre type headrest of the taste in only early type to October of 80.

As for actual travelling 37200km, records as many as 20 or more!
Furthermore all service at [yanase] we have gone!

Full inside and outside being maintained originally, as for the equipment, for garage storage complaint



That's per our Systran Translation program. Japanese is one of those that never quite makes perfect sense. But, I think you get the main gist of the ad.

Because there are people who don't read the diesel forum, yet can read Japanese.

Don't let the price in the ad fool you, it isn't where you start bargaining from. They add another 15 - 30% on top for taxes, fees, rip-off charges etc. Used cars are very cheap in Japan especially if you can get a dealer get it for you on an auction. Mileage is usually amazingly low, for North American eyes. That thing is ridiculously overpriced at nearly $30,000.
