Or a 420SEL---lots of cheap ones around, and fuel costs may work out
to be pretty close to the SDL depending on the gas/diesel price spread
in Snookland.  (Does a 420 really, truly require premium or is it OK
with regular like a 300E?)

No! Not likely.  But, my first car was a 1978 Olds Delta 88.  It was a total 
piece of crap. But, I bought it from my brother for $50 and I was 16. So, I 
didn't care how bad it was, it was a car!

Its cold air.  When it was 106 degrees the other day and it was just idling in 
the sun, it would cool to 70 degrees (checked it with thermostat).  While 
driving, it will cool much lower. Last year, I did buy the lazy man's gauge and 
a can of 134.  The low side pressure was 35 or so.  I added less than a half a 
can. Cooled very well.  This year, I checked it with the same gauge when it was 
over 100 degrees and pressure was 45.   But, then someone on the list pointed 
out, you are supposed to rev the engine and hold it at 2000 rpm.  When I did 
that, the pressure dropped to 38-40.  So, I have not added anything and the a/c 
is cold.

Listers,

I am going to put my car up for sale and thought I would offer it to
the list first.  It is a 1995 Mercedes E320 with only 106,000
miles. It is in spectacular shape.  The Headgasket was replaced due to
external oil leaks in February of January of 2010 with about 85,000
miles. No leaks.  I just put new plugs in last week.  I am replacing
the O2 sensor today/tomorrow.  I checked the codes and it needs it.
Everything works!  Paint is fantastic, interior VERY nice.  As you
know, 95 is the last year for the 124. So, it has all the model
updates and extras.  It is wired for CD changer, but I have not put in
a changer.  So, it only has cassette.  I did forget to turn the radio
off when I went through car wash.  So, the power antenna was broken
off.  I have the new mast, just haven't gotten it fed in yet.  I have
pics if anyone is interested.  Just email me off list.

Price $5500, but to listers, will sell for $5000.

This is making me laugh - - Just this weekend I noticed my Miata was running
pretty crappy rough starts and such.  Classic bad spark plugs.  I thought
Geez - I just did the spark plugs - right when I bought this car.  That was
5 years ago.  I have never kept a car for 5 years.  New plugs Saturday
morning and its like a new car.
