Randy - How many miles can you document on your 76 300D?
Unfortunately not all that many.
I have the original manual etc and it indicates the car was sold here
new by the local dealer.
There are some entries to indicate that it was serviced
Run about 6ft of vac hose into the cabin from the shutoff and when you
want to shut the car off just suck on it.

This is a good way to meet new people and educate the general public
when you're shoppng at the mall. After parking, pop the hood and ask
an innocent passerby to shut off the engine for you!

I went by the shop to get my BJs pressed, there was a blue TD up on a
lift. It had a repaint, and I noticed a spot of rust near the back
light, but in general it looked decent. I told one of the mechs that I
had one, this one looked better. He said the owner was thinking to sell
it as it
At what point does high mileage really matter to the value of a
Mercedes 123? I am thinking that as mileage increases, the value
declines, then flattens, and beyond a certain point might actually
INCREASE.

I think that really, really high mileage but well maintained examples command
more money. One guy put 1 million miles on his 240D and claims that he was
offered 50K for the car. Sounds like BS but ya never know.

Might be just me, but I think I would rather have the car with 50K miles

Really high mileage makes me nervous. Metal fatigue etc???

Hey, what is wrong with Bubba? You are showing your elitist side there
Andrew.
Randy who just found out that a local garage that had been closed for a
time and has re-opened, is run by a fellow named Jens who came from
Germany and has a history of working on MB and BMW.

Rubber bits may give up if it sits long enough and if it is not in a dry
storage place it may rust but that is more visible than hair line cracks
in the metal of important bits
How 'bout Ludwig?

I'm no engineer (software doesn't count), so don't ask me how many miles
you'd have to start putting on a 123 before you'd have to start
