Based on the interior wear, there is much more than 98k on that clock.  Either 
that, or the guy just liked to sit in the car and squirm around.

Looks good.  You should go check it out.  I bet you'd like it.   It 
appears to be a US model.  That is a shame, as it will have the ACCIII 
rather than left and right side manual controls.  (And a smog choked 
engine)  It may be a Euro car, but most of them had the velour 
upholstery.  A look at the heater controls will be a good clue.

If I was to buy it, I would not want to do a bunch of work on it.  :)  But, 
thanks!   I read a little bit more about them.  Seems like a nice car.  I am 
concerned about the claimed mileage of only 98K.  Seems pretty low.  I'll see 
if I can copy pictures from the facebook post.

Re: [MBZ] '84 500sel transmission?

[Tim C]

I was hoping you guys were right, but he replied this morning; apparently it
won't shift into -any- gear, forward or reverse.  It is an automatic.  He
says the engine sounds fine, so presumably it is in neutral or park.  Seems
like you'd be able to feel if the shifting linkage was broken, right?

He didn't know what service records meant, which doesn't inspire a lot of
confidence.  Probably would be getting in over my head, but I'd really like
a 126. :/

   I happened upon this, near my in-laws so I could borrow a driveway for a
 weekend.

 http://raleigh.craigslist.org/cto/1257520898.html

 Like I don't have enough to do on the diesels, but if it's a quick fix
 it might be a nice touring car to replace our Ford.  He doesn't say if it's
 an automatic or manual; is it really that hard to dig up a transmission
 though?  Is that really the reasonable suspect for a no-shift condition?

 Thoughts?

 Thanks,

Like I don't have enough to do on the diesels, but if it's a quick 
fix it might be a nice touring car to replace our Ford.  He doesn't 
say if it's an automatic or manual; is it really that hard to dig up 
a transmission though?  Is that really the reasonable suspect for a 
no-shift condition?

Thoughts?
Thanks,
