I'd love one, but finding either in half decent shape around here these days
I really hard.  My '88 300E is about as old as you see.  After that, they
really drop off, unless they are in really nice condition, and you see them
at a show or something.  A LOT of the late 80s early 90s Mercedes have gone
to the crusher with some of the new emissions laws.  My old '88 requires
emission testing every two years now too.  They just recently started that
with '88s, so from that onwards, the old rule of exempt after 20 years
doesn't count.
