and then overprice them

message to vendors - just because Parkers says it's worth £1400 doesn't neccessarily mean that's what somebody will pay for it.

1988 300E - guide price about £500 if you follow trends on eBay

1992 for £460

1992 for £680

there are plenty of others as well

I think he probably joined almost two years ago and lurked around a lot - his first post has been to sell a car, yes, but if he's been waiting two years to do that and not reading the forum then I'd be surprised

He probably joined when he bought it thinking that if it breaks down he can post a message but being a W124 it never did

Well, apart from the valve stem seals, brakes, suspension, and exhaust

what a miserable bunch

God, what a bunch.

Thanks to this forum in the past I've learnt a lot about the these cars, buying mine two years ago with knowledge gleaned from this site. The car's given me a lot of pleasure. I always wanted a W124 and when I needed a second car for a couple of years I bought one (I also run two motorbikes as well as the family car). Maintaining it has been helped by what I've learnt here. I never posted because I didn't have much to say - not as knowledgable as you experts obviously. I advertise a really nice car in case someone wants to buy it. If it's over-priced, thanks for the info. But do you have to be so mean-spirited?

To those who's advice has been helpful in the past, thanks. To those who want to carp, get a life. If someone wants to buy a nice car, get in touch. And if it's over-priced I'll haggle (but is a much better and totally original car with genuine low mileage than most battered cheapies out there).

Well said momagic.

An uncalled for attack. A few posters get v. territorial and cliquey about this bb.

Well said talk about jumping in a bit harsh there poeple. Is it the heat or what Its a free forum with free classified section. What is the harm. If people dont like it then put something in the feedback section so the mods can take a look at it. Such as 'No classified ads if you have less than 30posts' as is a rule on another forum I visit.

Just my 2p

Lol and here is me wanting to share all this reputation lovin around

Nicely done Howard, we all have bad days.

 

[andy_k]

If my post came across as rude then I apologise as well, it wasn't meant to.

I was trying to be constructive by offering examples of car prices - Prices for older large cars with big engines are in a real slump at the moment, something the trade guides haven't really responded to and what would have sold effortlessly for £1000+ is currently struggling to make half of that.

Good luck with the sale and if I offended you then I'm sorry.

Hey, Momagic.....

.....how about a couple of pics, wouldn't hurt.

I used to have a 300te, really good car, a real load-carrier......I used to use it to go down the local 'tip' all the time.......



.......but it used to follow me home everytime......lol......

Just kidding, wish I'd never sold it now.

Anyway 'Good Luck'

Cheers, Bill.
