Shame it's not auto otherwise I'd be on one of those orange and white flying things to go and get it. Still got a soft spot for them poverty spec W201's
i think condition over mileage everytime with a classic, lets face it. Any pre 90s car is most prob clocked at some point and mileage is engine, transmission moving parts. All of which can be fixed and changed at a fraction of fixing rust problems on chassis or body.
