Someone on the inside reckons it can be had for £5200.

Most likely would have full MB history as diplomat owned

yep i agree, all these buyers price guides are rubbish.

have a look on autotrader/ebay and see what others are selling for for the right prices....

suspect they would value any W124 multivalve diesel at about £500 ???? easily sell them for £1.5k onwards without problem.

they were also way out with my 7 series. sold mine 5k over what they said it was worth.

UPDATE

Actually got to view the car today. A nice car all in all but a few things need attention.

Its definately a classic model in black with cream leather, and mb history:

1. Being a diplomat car it has a flag pole in the body like

2. rip in leather on drivers seat. Side on the base, not on a seam.
3. dent in n/s/r quarter
4. 2 dents in o/s/r door
5. Looks like bumper has come off the rail on o/s/r

Now the dents will probably pull out and the bumper should be ok.

What could I expect from a private sale?

Its a sealed bid I have to submit for it, so need info as to what to bid

Thanks all
