    These are actually great cars - probably some of the highest quality that MB ever made. They're pretty indestructable. Kudos to whoever takes her home ;)

    I had one for many years. The engine and transmission were indestructible, the body wore out. Great driver car.

    Car does run well. Its a 420 sel. Gas engine. I was thinking of keeping it myself but the deal is I am doing some work for the previous owner. So in exhange he gave me the car for doing the work. So I would like to make some actual cash back. Thanks for some of the reaffirmation though that these cars are fairly "tough".

    ps, interior does have a few hiccups but overall still in good shape. (some warpage on console) Bumpers have a few scratches and the left front quarter has a about a 4 inch rust spot. Other than that no dents and the moonroof still works.
