280SE 3.5 (Not e-bay)

[janner]

and maybe not the best colour but....

nice looking car

Guide price seems optimistic but how do you value a 35 year old S-Class with only 11,000 miles?

 

[Rob77]

It does look very nice and although the colour wouldnt be my choice it suits the car.

 

[fatherpierre]

Bootifull.

Although you could probably pick one up for less than half that price in similar condition.

Thanks very much for the link, will you be going to the auction?

No, I won't be going. In fact I have never been to a classic car auction.
Judging by their previous auction results, the guide price is often way over what they actually make.
Maybe one day when I have more space in the garage I might consider a 280SL Pagoda or a 190SL.

will you be going to the auction?

I'll be there. Not for the Mercedes, but I'll keep an eye on it.

Saying nowt. This is an auction, you know. It's not wise to tell everyone what you're interested in

In fact there's something I'm toying with - well, several tings actually - (hence my coupe may be for sale), and I might also be there on behalf of somebody else.

If there's owt worth telling, you'll find out in good time.

Well said although my mate Janner is an honourable cheeky chappy.

As my old sergeant always used to say, "A secret shared is no longer a secret."
