Hi - I'm still looking for a reasonably cheap vehicle for my daughter to
drive while awaiting the ability to buy Donald's 300SEL. A guy a few miles
South of me has a 1989 560SEL with 200,080 miles and 'needs some Freon'. I
know these can be expensive to get into decent shape if not cared for
pro
Just think, you could be one careless driver away from being one of your
clients. My darling wife missed being unable to speak by about 1/2 inch
when a car pulled out in front of her on her small scooter.
Wear the helmet. But you already know that.

Hi Everyone
better
than advertised. We got 265k miles out of that car and all but the last few
thousand were quite nice.

t, but too
cramped for me to drive easily - in addition to the engine modifications he
has added that make it a bit peppier than my 300SD ... .
I will try one out a Z3 one of these days, but will not be in a hurry to do
so. Maybe my age and condition suggest a MB coupe.
