Quite entertaining:

If you are looking for a Charles Ironside car this is not the one, If you are looking for a Nick Froome W124 - this is also not that car. This is a used car that is at a budget price.

Mmm 198,000 miles---- very scruffy inside doesn't bode too well. Might clean up - might need the rear jacking points/rear subframe mounts rebuilt-- and no mention of the rear self levelling. Might be a money pit!

E220

Still looks an honest although used motor - probably worth more in bits..

Probably... I'm looking for a banger to drive to Italy over Christmas and did consider it... watching the auction, if no-one bids I may go have a look...

Says this in the ad:
Rear jacking points/rear subframe mounts are good, come and take a look. Also self levelling suspension is working as it should.

Must have read your mind.

Ooops didn't read that far down---- could be a resto project then.
