[MBZ] 300D on carsandbids

2024-02-16 Thread Andrew Strasfogel via Mercedes
Surprising amount of interest for an unattractive and imperfect W123.
Judging from the condition of the interior, I suspect the mileage is
substantially "different" from the odometer reading.  On the positive side,
the 49 state '85 model year version features the most robust transmission.

Where are photos of the '79 450?

I'm convinced that boring/ordinary/common colors will depress the value of
W126 sedans, which are currently not particularly rare.  The prices for
W126 coupes are less sensitive to color.

Back at the U of Minn. in 1968 I carpooled with a fellow grad student in
