The Fakebook page said "something is wrong" and won't show me the car. Andrew is correct, if it's a '77, it's a 450SL, or a Euro 300SL with an inline six.

Too many issues right now with COVID etc. Plus, that is a nice car but not exactly what I want. I have the old 115 300D. If I were going to look for another old MB it would be the bigger turbo diesel sedan, the 300SD, or a 123 turbo diesel sedan. but I am not likely to do that either. I don't really want to give up the one I have and unlike some of you folks, I don't have a "vast estate" so I have no place to park another one.
