Also note the copious rust almost all over, not to mention the MPG meter on 
the instrument cluster - usually a gasoline engine item, as I recall. 
Wonder how much can be believed about this very good car???

Looks pretty clean for a 250K mile car, the usual wear, perhaps a bit more
rust than one would expect. It will go for cheap. Wonder if it has any
power.

Oh, and it started life as a diesel, according to carfax.

The story of this 1993 MERCEDES-BENZ 300SD (WDBGB34E5PA141147) according to
our interpretation of the information reported to CARFAX:  
 This sedan has had at least 6 owners. The first title for this sedan was
reported to CARFAX by a Texas DMV in 1995. 
 It was involved in an accident in Wisconsin that was reported to the
police.

(minor accident according to carfax, probably the driver's door, which
doesn't match the rest of the car)


 It has had no DMV-reported total loss events, like a major accident, fire
or flood. 
 It has not been reported by a DMV as having an Exceeds Mechanical Limits or
Not Actual Mileage title. 
 CARFAX found an inconsistent odometer reading. CARFAX is uncertain whether
this reading represents a rollback or a source-level clerical error. 
 It was not reported by a DMV as a Manufacturer Buyback or LEMON. 
 It has no recalls that still require repair. 
 Go to the Detailed Vehicle History for the complete history and a glossary
of terms.

Kaleb -  So how did they make such an mpg meter on a car whose engine 
doesn't have a vacuum varied by throttle position?  I suppose you could 
design one to work with a computer calculating fuel flow and road speed, but 
even that is pretty complex at best.  Or cloodge up some bleed from the 
pumped vacuum lines?

Maybe I've just become too suspicious of car for sale ads.

2006-01-05 Thread Werner Fehlauer
Lee - the pictures show a lot of rust in places that indicate a lot of salt 
exposure, or a lack of paint care, or both.  With what they show on the 
outside, the underside probably is more of a project car than most people 
should try and fix, IMO.

those are the reverse guided.  Little rods pop up when in reverse so you 
can see where the back of the car is.

Just curious can afford anything like that or want anything as ostentatious. 
Plus the missus would spew with all those buttons.

FYI - those reverse guides appear on the 94 only. Not the 95. They
often fail but can be had at boneyards for  $20.

Actually they were on from 92-94 for sure, and I think 95.  AFter that

94 S350 has them. 95 S350 does not.

I only concern myself with the diesels.
