A family member recently bought a 126 gasser, I think an 86 420SEL. Low miles like this, beautiful deep maroon color, perfect shape but for some suspension work. I think a little cheaper than this, but he is just pleased as can be. Doesn't drive much, so no worries about the cost of gas. Supremely quiet and smooth ride, passengers are amazed when they ride it, such a shocking difference from the current electronic appliances they call cars. Max Dillon Charleston SC
