Problem is you pay that price you would need to buy it as a collector and
essentially garage it and maybe drive it a bit on clear days only every once in
a while. If you use it as a real car it will quickly become worth what most

course). Whatever I write will fail to adequately describe the
extraordinary flavor and texture of this amazing spread. Costs $$ but I

Maybe the model year has something to do with it? Otherwise, the cluster looks
normal. I didn’t realize the non-turbos were the distinction between the clock

Hmm, better be absolutely perfect for that ask. Even then...
Interesting that it has a clock by itself instead of a tach/clock combo. I
thought the turbo W123s all had a tach.

All joking aside, did the W116 have the same issue the W123 had with the fuse
being somewhat undersized for the blower, where they did the retrofit with the
strip fuse?
