supplied pigtail connector. I ended up just buying the exact fit correct
one for my 90 300D from Tom and had my Indy put it in.
E mail me off list for model number etc.

Huh? What if I just don't want lowballers, lookie-loos, people who don't

Yes-ditto. It's both SMG as Tom wrote and total cost-I don't keep cost per
mile records like Curt but I drive both my MB's with a SE grin and spend a
lot less than I used to with car payments, etc on my new Subaru-which was a
very economical car.

Max,
I already told him he could store it here-about an hour 1/2 away. My wife
likes that idea-means it covers up a driveway space that I might otherwise
fill.

Well if you want it I can go look at it-how can I tell if it really is
armored? I know-if it doesn't shatter at 50 yards?
Aren't most 140's for sale on CL the armored glass variety? Is the lorinser
package a real deal?

Dan,
I would recommend a Subaru forester-esp. If you have use for AWD. I just
sold one last fall with 100K miles for $5K. Had bought it new in 2001-no
trouble at all-did Jack Beanstalk trade-my wife wanted a used SAAB
convertible.

I think it is more than a suggestion-from what I understand it is a fairly
established fact. And they leaked early on-Wingspread leaked right after it
was built.
