the market for the 123 TDs has gone berzerk over the past few years. i bought mine 4 years ago for 2500 and really figured i was paying top dollar for it. I recently actually received a call along these lines a few months ago:
Hello, you know where i can find diesel mercedes for sale. no, not really, i only have one and i don't really want to sell it ok, i come look at it no,no i don't want to sell it. what kind is it? 81 300TD ok, i come see it . when is good for you? no, no, it's a ratty car. you don't want it. i don't want to sell it. the rear quarter is smashed. it leaks a quart of oil every hundred miles. you don't want it. i come see. when is good for you? I had to hang up on the dude. what a long way this is from when i bought my first benz diesel, a 72 220D, original owner, all books and records, immaculately maintained and in mint condition. The seller couldn't even get an offers on it besides my $1500 one in six months of trying. 'twas a different world, huh? On 12/27/06, TimothyPilgrim <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
