Might have to place a bid on this without the missus knowing!

Looks lovely minus the chrome wheelarches.... which are the tell tale sign that this was for sale about 2-3 years back on the bay.....

I rather like chrome wheel arches on some cars (yes, I know, I have no taste...), though not very much on that one. They might not be concealing rust; young blades of certain ethnic groups have been keen on them in the past, though not so much these days.

As a non-driveable 'barn find' it could well be a money pit, and it's not a good sign if the seller is extolling its potential for breaking... Strange, too, that the seller, who is obviously a very experienced eBay operative, only has four feedback.

With all that, it looks good in the pictures, so far as one can tell in that dim light. If I were looking for a W140 coupe, I'd definitely go and see it, but I'd take a ten-foot pole with me, just in case.

I'd steer well clear of this one; spotted it in a car park over a year ago and approached the owner who was running a used car dealership in the same location. he said i was more than welcome to have a look but made it clear it was not for sale and it was his project car. From what i saw the wiring was an absolute mess and the interior was half stripped.

After that i saw it at mercedes birmingham where one of the technicians told me it had come in on the back of a flatbed to have a diagnostic
Also saw the same car at a merc specialist about a month earlier

seems to me the seller has given up on it and I don't think anyone can figure out what is wrong with it.

Then again if i wanted one this would be the perfect donor car

Romany caravans , hoodies , flatbeds , shipping containers

All bad news when looking for a car to buy

^^^ My thoughts entirely ^^^

As above, you cant really get any more dodgy looking background than that!

The interior looks damp, I bet it smells of wet dog

Car has a major ECU problem and needs alot of work.

Car has been to us but Customer did not want to spend money to fix it!
