Actually, the '95 is probably an M119, like our '94 E420 was.

Re: [MBZ] New Addition to Dan's Acres

[Karl Wittnebel via Mercedes]

It looked like part of the front bumper was gone under the right corner. I
had the same thing happen reversing across a pavement edge.

I think the headliner is such a big item in terms of the value of the car.

These are really good machines. The m119 is just great, electronics aside.
My mechanic had a 400e in with the motor out recently. Loss of oil pressure
caused the timing chain to skip. The owner was having them rebuild the
motor. Mind you it had over 250k on the clock. The guy had no intention of
getting rid of the car.

Re: [MBZ] New Addition to Dan's Acres

[Dan Penoff via Mercedes]

Front bumper is OE but may need to be freshened up. According to the car’s 
history, it’s been pranged in the front twice and stolen once. All with the 
original owner. The first front end wreck was within a few hundred miles of 
delivery! Dealer appears to have done the work on both instances. No stickers 
on the radiator support = giveaway there’s been front end damage in it’s past.

Not only has factory CD changer but original Becker and they both work. This 
setup is easily modified for an auxiliary input as well.

With only 113k on the clock the back end might not be that bad. We’ll see.

Engine harness was replaced by Mercedes some years ago. Lower harness and ETA 
not that I know of, but they’re probably OK.

Yes, it has ASR.

Headliner will need replacement. My headliner guy will do it for under $200 as 
a carry in. I need the headliner on the SL500 redone, too, so I’ll take both in 
at the same time.

Yeah, I’ll be doing that. Saves the lenses if they’re not in bad shape to start 
with.

Should be a fun project. I’m looking forward to it.

Re: [MBZ] New Addition to Dan's Acres

[Karl Wittnebel via Mercedes]

That is a good deal. Congrats.

The front bumper cover is about 700 from mercedes. I have one of the cheap
ones from Latvia sitting around if I would sell cheap.

Dont back into anything. The rear impact strip is nla and no aftermarket
parts here that I could find.

Factory CD changer is mint! I may need to find one. I wonder if it only
works with a Becker head unit.

They all need the fcp euro rear suspension overhaul.

Did they do the harnesses, or are you going to make one?

16" SL wheels are a nice upgrade.

160mph on 275hp?

Does it have ASR?

How is the headliner?

Amazon clear film on the headlights looks super.

Re: [MBZ] New Addition to Dan's Acres

[Dan Penoff via Mercedes]

Giving more thought to this it makes sense. It was the same way (and engine) 
with the W140s, too. This was about the time MB started messing with badging, 
too.

Cool. Then my 400E was a sleeper. I never paid attention to the engine numbers. 
They’re probably both 112.974.

In comparison, the 275k 1993 400E I had would do 130 mph before I chickened 
out, with some pedal still left. This one will probably go just as fast, or up 
to 160 mph if it’s got the later brain box in it. The last of these they raised 
the limiter to 160 mph from something like 135 mph or thereabouts.

Slightly better. 4.2 liters of displacement versus 4.0. Facelift model, (94-95) 
so the last and best of the design and enhancements to the W124 chassis.

Just loaded on the truck about 30 minutes ago. Should be here on Sunday or
