The 230 actually looks great, except for the terrible rust and repair
underneath. The 220S is a little rougher overall, but more solid. Its
certainly worth saving.

I wonder about the mileage on the 85 300SD. It looks like a lot of blow by on
the valve cover for only 121,400 miles. I don't get that much blow by on my 80
300SD with around 425,000 miles. Plus, I got well over 200,000 miles on the
starter on both my 617s.
Just an observation.

Given how easily it started and well it ran, I haven't concerns about the
engine. It didn't show any blow by at idle, so it's likely an issue of
messy breather hoses.
There were plenty of high mileage cars there... I don't suspect any reason
it's not an honest car.
