Re: [MBZ] This Looks Nice, But....

Why do you want one of these so bad? You already have some nice cars and have had others that you have moved on from that are a heck of a lot better than some early 60's car.. I doubt a finnie is either all that fun to drive or all that safe. Admire from afar and stick with cars a bit newer

Does the right rear taillight frame/trim look like it’s got no plating? Engine compartment sure is clean. -D > On May 31, 2017, at 5:31 PM, Curley McLain via Mercedes > wrote: > > Looks pretty nice for a commie car. (Communists in yurp rotated their stars > to point

Looks pretty nice for a commie car. (Communists in yurp rotated their stars to point down , especially on fin cars and 114/5s. Max's Italian in-laws should be able to confirm this. Dan Penoff via Mercedes May 31, 2017 at 3:32 PM …it’s in the middle of nowhere…

Re: [MBZ] This Looks Nice

True, but I love the color. It looks to be pretty straight. Hagerty puts a #3 240D of the same model and vintage at $7600, so if it’s nice they’re not that far off of the market. Go ahead, buy it. You know you want it. -D > On May 11, 2017, at 8:27 AM, Kaleb C. Striplin via Mercedes >

Re: [MBZ] This Looks Nice

I see W210 turbos all the time for $5-8k. The $5k ones have 200k miles and don't look perfect. Never gave a second thought to buying one. Maybe that $3k one in Tampa is worth a plane ticket... Mitch. > On April 29, 2017 at 1:38 PM Rick Knoble via Mercedes > wrote: >

Re: [MBZ] This Looks Nice

About all cars these days have the faded headlight look because they are plastic. On 4/29/2017 3:37 PM, Dan Penoff via Mercedes wrote: It’s strange, but the one thing that always put me off about the W210s was the headlights. Don’t know why, just never liked that “moon eyes” sort of look.

Re: [MBZ] This Looks Nice

It’s strange, but the one thing that always put me off about the W210s was the headlights. Don’t know why, just never liked that “moon eyes” sort of look. And whenever I see one, the headlights always seems to be faded/crazed. -D enjoying his simple yet elegant W123/126 chassis’ cars > On

Re: [MBZ] This Looks Nice

That is more true than I expected. There are a host of these things at the knackers, such that they do not make it to PnP. Too many spare parts that can be sold on to keep the turds rolling on the road. Sadly, the parts I need are those most prone to be needed by everybody else. clay > On

Re: [MBZ] This Looks Nice

I meant no aspersions toward your cars Kaleb, just what I have been exposed to leads me to the opinion expressed. At the time the purchase was needing to be made, the available W210 cars were horrid examples of the marque. The W220 examples were much nice for the cash spent. This in no way

Re: [MBZ] This Looks Nice

I think the Klebster is on to something here…. While I don’t know the W210 chassis’ cars, I do know the W220s, and they are nothing but a ticking time bomb with limited longevity. They are nice cars when they work, but the engineering, fit and finish on them is the functional equivalent of a

Re: [MBZ] This Looks Nice

You are saying a 220 is the lesser of 2 evils of a w210 diesel? I hate to say it but you must have had a long night of hookers and blow. I have own a 97 diesel that is pushing close to 400k miles, and 98 turbo that is at about 220k. Yes they are not as high quality as a 124 but they are still

Re: [MBZ] This Looks Nice

I only test drove a bunch of these, never owned. I wanted a replacement for the E300D (w124) and this just was not going to fit the bill. Ended up with a POS w220. Lesser of two evils. Based on what I see at PnP, the cars are of a lesser quality build wise than the W124 and have few

Re: [MBZ] This Looks Nice

This model suffers from front spring perch rust, and poor quality electronics. However, if they are still on the road now, I'll bet most of the electronics issues have been addressed. They also have the OM606 engine with the really long glow plugs that can break off during removal. After
