Regrettably, we are having to put up forsale our ex-diplomat LHD 1963 280S W108 which has recently been completely restored (externally) no rust and resprayed. Around £6k spent on her since ownership, she needs a new good home :( :( :(

Selling due to redundancy, we had planned to completely restore the interior aswell :(

The good bits:
-Tax Free!
-2.8ltr Straight Six with electronic start!
-Brand new full carpet €700
-Complete rust removal done of entire car
-Complete respray
-Complete underbody protection
-Great Condition brightwork
-Sony Headunit with iPod control & my old amp

Bad Bits:
-Tiny oil leak/weap
-Headlining looking its age, needs replacing or full clean
-Rip in dashboard
-Some of the seals are cracking, needing replacing
